Title: PLO Zoom
Post by: Rod on June 06, 2012, 06:30:38 AM
Would like some help on this hand if anybody could please. I am playing here in a three way pot. There is an UTG raise and I have a pretty double suited hand so call. Would a 3-bet be better here? Anyway have just called and flop the 3rd Nut's which is not that great 3-way in PLO I suppose. The UTG raiser then bets out and gets a call. The bet looks small and I figure I am either ahead or drawing dead so I call (Should I raise in PLO instead?). I do think that the caller would have raised if he had a bigger flush than me as I played a hand against him earlier when he pot raised me with a set so I think he fast plays good hands.

Turn is blank and UTG makes another bet, this time it is a lot closer to the pot. I am wondering if he has a set of aces here or if he has the bigger flush. I am not that happy when the other players calls either as it looks like he has some kind of non nut flush as well. so He could have me beat although it is still very unlikely so not too sure I should be unhappy about this. At this point I still feel I am probably ahead of the caller but not sure about UTG. I do think he is probably going to shove on the river if he has a better hand than me and I am going to be committed to call it. So should I just flat the bet? Should I put the UTG player allin (I would then expect the MP player to fold) or should I just fold myself?

whoooooaaaaww

 Qd Jc 9d 4c is a "pretty double suited hand" the hand you've been dealt is a complete monster. 100% 3bet, vs almost anyone at any time, I'd be 4betting this hand a lot as well fwiw.

As played it's really kinda horrible but I think we can just fold the turn, I know its 5c/10c where people tend to over-value hands a bit but there is no reason the bettor can't have a better flush, even more likely when he bets again into 2 OTT and it's also pretty possible if the guy with the lead doesn't have you beat then the caller does (true enough his range includes ALL flushes most likely - even though it shouldn't - but there are real sets that are that plausible and I just ccant see him calling the turn with a striaght so its also pretty likely he could have you beat)

Either way were going to be put to a river decision that is going to be complete guesswork so my preference is to fold here I think. Calling the flop is really your only option in a single raised pot with no history.
