PLO 8 or Better / Grade 4 / Quarter warfare

Counterfeit pause

Board pairs a key low card → one-second pause, recompute from scratch. Old flop stories die on paired boards.

Common leak

auto-calls the river with the flop low after the board pairs the wheel card.

Worked example

before a river call, say scoop / half / quarter / dead out loud. Can't say it → fold more.

Common leak

never folds A2 even when high is dead and the share is trash.

Drill

fold one A2 for model reasons and write the share math.

Coaching note

Omaha coaching staple: wrap/nut potential and reverse implied odds beat 'pretty flopped pairs' thinking. Use it as a check on 'Counterfeit pause', not a quote to recite.

Remember

Change one PLO8 decision this week. Notes beat vibes.
