Good answer!

Given that it's PLOM, I also would have accepted

A: "Pre-flop"

B: "Flop"

C: "Turn"

And all would probably be the right play.

I usually play on FTilt, but it's been difficult moving money around -- generally play 1/2 or 2/4, rarely 3/6.

Funny thing is that I flopped quad 7s on another table within a minute of this hand and stacked someone who rivered aces full -- I'll post the hand when I get home.

I understand the default flop quads/slow play mentality, but I actually bet out that hand because you can lose (and when you do it is for the full stack), and realistically there are not a ton of cards that will happen that will make an opponents hand better that you get action with other then an overpair hitting a 2 outer for an overfull.

Without the straight flush draw it is fine, let people get a 2 outer or a straight, but on a flop like that where SF is possible with multiple outs at least build the pot a little. He did get what he deserved in a way, and I wonder what he thought you had.

At the least he should bet that turn, in a way it is the perfect card as either it helped you enough to stay around or if it did not you pretty much will put very little in there unless you have a sf after the river.

Kind of strange to say it, but he managed to play flopped quads poorly

I hate Omaha. I was on the receiving end of something similar last week... had Aces full and someone rivered their straight flush... lost my buy-in. Ah well... that will teach me to stick to hold'em or stud. :P
