Revisiting Harry's old corner thread of a while ago...
Here is a hand from yesterday.
It was a low limit Sit and Go tournament.
As you can see the chips went my way at the end of the hand. The other player BisB had more than tripled up early in the game nicely playing a flopped straight in one hand and flopped quad kings in the next hand. Since then she had been steadily losing chips.
The game is PL08 blinds were 25/50.
There were three limpers to my bb, and with a marginal hand elected for a free look.
I bet the pot on the flop, again on the turn and my last 575 (I think, may be a few more or less) on the river.
BisB was the only player to call my bets including the last.
What was BisB holding.
Feel free to ask for more info if you need it.
Best guesses so far;
Ramster; K flush draw probly with 4 to the low straight also
Miklosik;
Pooldemon; king high flush draw + draw to the low hand or maybe had AA in the hole & didn't know how to fold
JR;
HOUSECATS;
DangerMouse; A-3-3-x with maybe a couple of clubs or Ac 2c Qd x

I'll put the answer in the spoiler so anyone who sees this at a later date may have a go at it themselves.

Here I must thank everyone for taking the time to consider their answers and appologise for leading you on (just a touch).
I'd like to declare a winner... you all are
I really thought I was toast when my river bet was called and laughed my socks off when I saw the result. I took the screenie because I couldn't believe the call and wanted to look at the hand after the game to double check what had happened.
My opponent not on the flush had called a pot size on a good low draw, called a pot size on an up and down straight draw and another 500 or so on the end... I don't know why
Ramster
Now i know im not a great Omaha player but heres my twopennorth
If shes been losing chips after tripling up it seems she coulda been chasing draws
So,and this may sound a bit too obvious, shes got you outchipped and shes got position so i would say she was holding an K flush draw probly with 4 to the low straight also
Miklosik
PoolDemon
yeah I think Den hit it, bleeding chips & chasing draws, king high flush draw def makes sense, maybe also had a draw to the low hand too (that didn't hit)...or maybe had AA in the hole & didn't know how to fold
Ramster

This hand would be too big to be calling rather than raising with
JR
I'll guess they have the nuts low draw with a flush possiblity and a queen.:

I thought about a similar possible hand also, but I think a re-raise would have happened, how many times have you seen a set lose to a straight or bigger full house, just calling here isn't a trap, it's waiting to get beaten, even if holding the nut flush draw, I would never call here to the river, it's betting/re-raising time right off the flop...imo (as foolish as that is)

Always tough to put an opponent on a hand in om8b.
I`m inclined towards somthing like A-3-3-x with maybe a couple of clubs.
Another option would be Ac 2c Qd x
Mrs know-nuffin
I think this person is a chaser too but I am going to plumb that she had a good low hand draw and happened to have a queen in her hand to keep her going to the end and beyond.
(I have to say that Stu told me about this hand but since I have the memory span of a goldfish I have sadly missed my chance of impressing you all with my poker insight and reading skills )
Know-nuffin
Thanks everyone; there are some well thought out answers above.
I must admit when the last bet was called I thought I was toast.
I've edited the top post with the best guesses so far and will hold off posting the full hand to give others a chance of adding their suggestions.
harry_lime
ok, based on the clues, i'll go even lower. would be hard to believe this would get a call on the end but.......
muratore
: : : :
looks like a winner to me
KITYKATS
Not very good at this game but i well guess
Know-nuffin
Thanks for the replies...
The answer is posted at the top.
Miklosik
OMG kn! I'm speechless. I do not play O8 much and consequently do not play it well, but even I would have folded that. Before the betting even started.
HOUSECATS
obvious why they called the river bet they thought they had the low hand no pairs.
PoolDemon
very UL for them that it didn't work out, and obviously jack high had to be the best hand, right, easy insta call on the river to your all in, you were very lucky to suck out & actually hit something
-----------------------------------------------------------
yeah they had a gutshot straight draw & low hand draw on flop...improved to 2 straight draws on the turn, 1 of them was open ended...& still a low hand draw...
calling the river, now ok, maybe they were new to the game & thought they hit a flush (hearts) that has been seen before, otherwise, well, I've played a lot of O8, very rarely does ace or king high wins, now jack high, hmmmmm...
DangerMouse
I would say I`m speechless but tbh I`ve seen too many idiotic calls in this game to be completely surprised. Even so that river call is pretty far out there in terms of hand strength.
Hands like that are the reason I only try and put decent players on a hand in O8.

I was being diplomatic.
