Royal Flush
Foxwoods 2/5 PLO. This is a great game - best I've seen in a long, long time at this property. Pots are regularly $500+ and all-ins are becoming the norm. BB just joined an already active table and is pushing it into flipament territory.
SB is a maniac and has been rebuying for $200 and sticking it in with the thinnest of draws. He complains that he always misses his draws and he rarely seems to have a made hand.
BB is a maniac and has been rebuying for $200 and sticking parts of it in blind. Top two pair at showdown is a huge hand for him.
UTG is a kid that is trying to play a TAG style but is putting his money in too frequently because he's friendly with BB.
Hero is UTG+1. I've been in the game for 2 hours, and I've only shown down one hand (flopped bottom set, checked behind on A river 3-handed and lost to a rivered set of aces). SB and BB think I'm a nit. Nobody else at the table knows me. I haven't been in a hand with SB or BB yet but I've gotten UTG to fold what I'm sure was a better hand and didn't get called in 2 other hands by CO and BTN where I turned or rivered the nuts. Not my usual overactive boisterous self.
CO is a hold'em player and is way overvaluing hands like AA and KK preflop. He also overvalues sets (he's lost with middle set twice and had to rebuy each time). I think this is his first time playing PLO in the casino but he's clearly played it in a home game or lower casino stakes - he understands the basics. He just won a nice pot with a flopped set and rivered the boat.
BTN is an older Asian guy that regularly plays 5/10 NLHE and is hyper aggressive but at this wild-ass table he's just a very competent TAG. Most dangerous player at the table in my opinion. He's gotten his money in three times that I've seen and each time he had either the nuts or a made hand (set or straight) with a better redraw.
There is one other player at the table (UTG +2) but he's already looking like he's going to fold when the hands are dealt. The other 2 players are up and walking around and not dealt in.
Stack sizes (rounded off):
SB: $250
BB: $250
UTG: $275
Hero: $415
CO: $400
BTN: $415
SB and BB post, UTG straddles $10. (Pot $27).
Hero is dealt Kd-Qd-Qs-9c.
Action?
