Ok... guy with aces was good... but what was the idiot with TT99 thinking? I know I didn't have the greatest hand going into it, but how can that guy make that call?

Comments
Don't take this the wrong way but...
A: Bad call pre-flop... your hand sucks
B: Bad re-raise on the flop .... your hand sucks
C: Bad raise on the turn... your hand sucks

Edit... I just put idiot donk, because i thought it would be a catchy title... though the hand was mostly my fault
Well, not wrong, sarcastic yes, but not wrong. Your hand is weak and your position is horrible. Calling the initial raise to protect your BB, sure... but the re-raise you have to fold it... you're looking for your set or flopped straight.. otherwise you've got nothing.. no, two pair isn't a strong hand in PLOM.
Omaha is a game of nut peddling... if you don't have the best hand, or a reasonably nut hand, and you think someone has a better hand? They do.
Two pair sucks on ANY board, it's not strong enough to be raising, especially on a board with a made straight. Sure, THIS time you were ahead until he caught, or the board paired (not your cards obv.)

All I know is that 99TT is a helluva lot better than 8862.
