Title: 6 card PLO, folding nuts on the flop
Post by: Steve86 on September 07, 2013, 12:11:27 AM
2-4 6 max on full tilt, villain is 6 card reg so knows the game. Preflop is fine imo so only interested in flop decision. Game is full.
Hero $1272.40
sb $400
villain $862

Hero raises $12 utg+1  Ahrt 8s 4h 6s Td Kc
sb 3 bets $34
bb calls, hero calls. Flop comes  4d 7d 5c

sb checks, bb bets $84, hero.... folds?

Villain is aggro, he will be betting turn and river on every blank if i flat.

him betting every blank turn and river isn't any concern really because there are pretty much no blank turn rivers. Peel one of and see what happens if you want as you're IP or just fold now, either is fine.

You'll be folding to any turn bet obv even on like the Qh

Me too. Suicide starting hand in 6 PLO. I can't see much good advice coming here except fold.

DISCLAIMER: Never played the game....

...but. If we are folding to one bet on this particular flop, why are we (a) opening and (b) calling the 3bet?

Very, very happy to be proved wrong but it feels like apart from hhh flops, 57xhh flops and 9JQr flops this is basically our best possible flop?

--> Given how rare these occurences are surely if we are thinking about folding now we should be folding pre?

I'm one of the loosest PLO players I know and I would have folded this pre.

All of this is correct. It's one of the best flops for this hand and its still a fold.

It's just a very difficult hand to play unless you have mega reads on oppo and even then turn decision is gonna be harder.

That's a fair point about preflop, I was in gamble mode. So this is a standard flop fold right?

i think preflop is fine too.....fold flop is best play imo,  but cos u got position, you can also call and bluff , say if blank turn, u can call, and once river board changes, if he check, you should bluff all the time. but if he keeps betting river, then you should fold, ofc, we hope turn and river is blank blank, cos he may have big draw on the flop , rather than the nuts, so with position, both are fine imo. i am fish, hardly to fold the nuts, haha.....

Yeh, peeling one off and seeing what happens gotta be fine.

I think pre-flop is marginal ropey.
