Should I be calling or folding preflop. I felt I had a bit of fold equity leading. On the turn I had similar reasoning to double barrel. On the river I figured anything better than me was calling and nothing worse than me would call.

I'd definitely fold preflop. Position is king in PLO.

If you'er going to bet the flop and turn I really think you need to fire the river here to get him off of 2pr hands. Most players will raise the flop with a pair+straight draw sort of hand.

Yeah I'm very gradually getting better at tightening up in PLO, heh.

But really, I get 4 cards, how can I not be dealt the nuts each hand?

does anyone 3bet here? what if we had Ah instead of Qh? would that make it a 3bet? Or would you expect villan to have 98t/qjt to often in his range?

As played I think firing 45 on the river should get him to fold enough of the time.

I would 3bet if the hand were ds, but this one is a fold pf imo.

If the Q were an A, and we were double suited, I'd consider a 3bet--but I don't think it is super necessary since the 567 part of our hand plays well in a single raised pot.

With no nut suit and guaranteed 3 way action I'd muck this pre. If the queen were a suited ace I'd hazard a call against weaker players. Hands like A567 with a nut suit are really some of my favorite hands in PLO but they are quite difficult to play OOP.

Fold Pre Q756 is really garbage OOP against raiser caller (also 3-bet is really bad as well)
failing that check flop (very bad equity 3 way as you are drawing to dummy end)
failing that check turn (A isn't a good card for us J rundowns peeling flop can hit that ace)


as played on river, lean towards c/f though betting wouldn't be bad. The 7 is a pretty good card for us to bluff. A big wrap likely raises on the rainbow flop and many OESD fold the turn but if you can't know that he folds something like a J8 two pair I'd c/f.

Fold pre, check/probablycall flop, and I don't really care for your turn barrel since I think we need to fire lots of 3rd ones, but its hard to tell which cards are even good for us.

When you do get to the flop this board is a 1 or 3 barrel situation. The first barrel's good because the board's scary enough that he can't float, and he can't really peel with an overpair. One he does call though, he probably connected with the board enough to see the river.

Definitely fold this preflop. I'd call a minraise out of the BB but definitely not 3x.

I think I'd pick a slightly stronger hand to lead with on the flop. I'd probably just chk/fold this 3 ways. There are definitely hands in your chk/folding range that are stronger than this so I'd rather be leading those.
