in the 888pl $2.20 nightly QQxx is a monster considering what most people call pre flop pot raises with.

You played it fine, though check turn (easy to say in hindsight i know) but let em hit, one of em will pay you with a crying river call, might even make a full house etc..
May all your pain be champagne!

thanks for the input everyone, benny the cunt normally would have folded but had one of those "why not" moments i guess the point i was trying to get to was did play the "quads" well, thanks Garth for pointing out to play off the strength of your weakest hand was probably doing that already subconsiously but now will be actively thinking about it.

You really don't want to play the nuts passively in Omaha, especially on a loose table.

I will suggest though that the looser the table the more you want to tighten your playing range.

I suggest you use a HOLDEM calculator and calculate your equity against 7,2 os against AA.

Then use an OMAHA calculator to calculate your pre flop equity when holding A,A,K,Q double suited against 4,J,7,2 off suit. Even with such a strong hand against such a terrible hand you are not a lock.
