I've been fairly quiet at the table, but have won 3 pots in a short period recently, all uncontested raises including one against jimbomber so was thinking the checkraise may have been to tell me that he knows.  Then I thought I've just butchered the hand anyway so thought I'd ask.  I don't play much PLO8, I play even less $100 comps!

surely this is a raise pre???

Get it in now? I don't play much PLO and hardly any hi/lo so I could be completely wide of the mark!

Not raising pre was a mistake I thought.

lol wtf is this a windup?

This is a raise pre but now we are on the flop and have the effective nut/nut hand! I dream for hands like this and now you want to tank?

THis!

I dont understand what you are concerned about. You have the nut low (draw) sewn up here and even have counterfeit protection. You can take him off A3 as he prob raises pre (and you have 2 A's). Unless he has flopped a set you have the nut high too.

You should have absolutely no problem with getting all the chips in here on any street (unless the board comes high high) - but the money should already be in.

I would even contemplate (tank) flatting this to try and get him to bluff all his chips off on the next street! The board is fairly dry and your hand is well disguised as you havent raised pre.

GG Jim bomber

The limp pre has disguised your hand nicely so he never thinks you're strong here. Certainly not this strong.

I don't mind the limp pre oop for this reason. When it hits it's well disguised and with 5 to act after you there's always a chance of someone doing the raising for you giving you a chance to smash a load in pre. Problem then is that your AA is face up but you're not deep enough for this to be a major issue anyway.

He could well have a good low draw himself and is trying to buy the pot not knowing that he's just ran in to a monster.

Whatever he's got you're drawing to a scoop with an unbreakable nut low.

Get it all in now.

He starts the hand with 25BB, small ball is not really an option.

wow, even i know what to do here.

if you were waaaaaay deeper, like in live cash, would your line change at all given an aggro lineup. Like would calling the raise be > jamming?
