10 PLO Cash

Quite right tikay. Win a small pot or lose a big one?

But the button is so much fun for repping funky stuff it's worth a shot. I never thought about the fact that playable hands with a Q and a T will nearly always be raising the button here. Good stuff. I have learnt something in 2014 already.

IDK if lose a big one or win a small one is the big issue with this type of hand, main problem is that in a multi-way pot we're never really gonna flop magnum enough to put a lot of money in fast and put people under big pressure. Thing is though multi-way pots pretty tend to play tighter/straightforward and we have the kind of hand we're gonna be able to stab quite a few flops/turns OTB - so I think you CAN make a lil money limping along - you're absolutely right though, these sort of hands in multi-way pots is really not where the money is made in online PLO.

I actually think you'd limp enough QT** hands OTB here, and you should do as well, hands like QT65, even dbl suited will play a lot better as a limp here given that we might get limp/re-raised and no-one is folding really. KQT6 stuff like that, all plays better as a limp behind here, imo.

Wouldn't be ISO'ing here all the wide from the btn, mostly just big cards with a suited ace - where we can flop bigger draws and get people putting money in bad etc.

The decision we should concentrate on is the first decision - "shall I play this hand?". That's where the problems begin. All imo, obv.

yes yes yes!

Hmmm... Well, I'm going to post my logic for playing this hand pre and see what people think of it.

Firstly, its likely to be a 6 way limped pot, so in that sense we have to put in 1bb to win 5. We have a reasonably playable hand, if the two didn't double suit our hand I wouldn't play it. We have a 3 card run with a gap at the bottom, if the gap was anywhere else I wouldn't play it. Even though we are most likely to be winning a small pot with this hand, I think the fact that we are IP can give us enough information and/or control over the pot to be able to win that small pot and make us far less likely to lose a big one (we're unlikely to get stacky with the second nuts in a 6 way limped pot, as we did not in this instance).

Hehe.

I assume this to be more sets/2 pairs than the bus.

Why?

I disagree at these stakes

[pleno1]

I'd assume people pot with the nuts and bet smaller with medium strength hands, similarity to no limit they will often bet a % of the pot that collie rates with their hand strength.

On the turn he should have never have the nuts

[SuuPRlim]

I agree he almost never has QT when he checks the turn.

What pleno said.
