All depends on whether or not Assad91 is decent or not. If he's good then he could have limped along with a crappy AAxx hand and now be repotting since he can get enough of his stack in pre. If he's bad then he's just gunna pot it pre with any AAxx hand. PTR says that he's bad so I think we've gotta repot and get it in since neither player has AAxx here imo.

PTR only has 310 hands on Assad91 for Omaha, I was aware of this at the time. No other info.................

blah, I fold this faster than a fast thing on fast day. But I might just be too tight. I reckon you're never favourite to win the hand here.

[GreekStein]

You're not factoring in your $18k of run good.

Get it in and try not to tilt too hard if you lose $50

Running KK22 vs two other hands in the top 15% that aren't AAxx we should definitely get it in

[EvilPie]

You're about 33% against a decent AA hand such as AA78 as long as your diamond draw isn't crushed.

You're pretty much flipping against 5678ds

You're ahead of any non AA hand.

Double paired hands are lovely at PLO especially when you're playing short and cheap. You're never a big dog and there's some satisfying binks to be had.

Get it in quickly man.

This is very close, but i think you're underestimating how frequently Asado has AAxx hands. I think a fold would be marginally more profitable in this instance. If I was loosing for the session id call tho lol

I actually opted to ship on this occasion and one other player called as well as Assad. He did indeed have AAxx, other player had some BS hand and I binked obv

I think we can take a results orientated line and say GOOD SHOVE wiiiiiiiii

[MrBlond]

Folding pre at any point would be terrible, I would actually just 3bet the first raise but as played after getting 3bet just flat because you're hitting a set 1/4 times and a flush draw often enough also to get it in on the flop.

But shipping and binking works too!

I think its a lot closer, slightly higher up I think folding becomes marginally the worst play, but at these stakes people making these plays just have it AAxx hands far too much. plus it looks like its going to be 3way if you shove+ ur hand plays pretty terrible multi-way. If you have reason to think one of the guys would fold...then shoving is profitable for sure.

Also +1 on the 3betting pre. +1 on calling to flop 40% equity
