Strategies for These Outlandish Games: Drawmaha Variants (1 Viewer)

[Jayvee94]

Hi, Guys.

I'd be continuing from this thread:

https://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/strategies-for-these-outlandish-games.29483/

I'll be making some hand Examples:

Game: Pot-Limit Drawmaha
Blinds: TC 25/TC 50 (TC would be my generic currency)

Pre-Flop
UTG: fold
HJ: fold
CO: Raise Pot (175)
D: fold
SB: fold
BB: 3-Bet Pot (600)
CO: call (175+425)

POT: 1275

Flop


BB: Raises to 500
CO: Raises to Pot (2775)

What does the CO would reasonably have assuming both he and BB have TC 5000?

How many cards should he/she draw before the turn?

I haven't played much Dramaha but I'll make a stab at this anyway.

CO clearly wants to play for stacks here. It's difficult (for me) to guess CO's range without knowing something about him/her, but I'm inclined to give CO credit for a made draw hand and a strong Omaha draw. Maybe trips in his hand and a strong draw in Omaha. That is, unless CO is a maniac or a degen who will gamble for stacks much of a hand thinking he can drive BB out of the pot. I can't imagine BB repotting the flop without a virtual lock or huge draw on one side and wanting to deny CO his equity on the other side.

Does BB hold any cards that CO is likely to need? Does BB call the flop raise?

Looks like two big hands to me.

I really need to read @Jimulacrum's book on Dramaha.
