New to plo. having decent success but the games I play in are fairly tight preflop, and just bleed post. So preflop is still lost to me.

Villain is pretty bad, we have been doing some trash talking back and forth, he even wanted to paly me hu but backed down when I actually sat a game. He isnt good at all, but understand some concepts it seems. He plays way too many hands pre, which results in him being a little stationy post. I dont know how capable he is of running a huge bluff. Havent seen him do one yet.

He cold called a 3 bet from Sb with Kt54, single k high fd.

He has 3 bet me a couple times before, one time min 3 betting over me with KKTTr. He flop top set on k46ss and potted 3 ways.

Also recall him 3 betting a weak king high at some point(along the same lines of kt54 single suited)

on bovada so no exact player stats. But he is def not a fan of me, and has loosened up versus me over the last hour.

My image: Maniac. I am 3 betting and raising relentlessly, especially now that its shorthanded.

My thoughts:

Bro do not put spoilers coz it is hard to read. Only the end results can be in.

Pot it pre flop.
Flop - bet fold like 80.
Turn - nh.
River - pot it.

Yeah, huge bet on the river (180-210). Villain has lots of trips here and some boats. He didn't call a 4b pre to hit trips on the flop and fold

Betting small to induce seems terrible.

love the spoilers!

Bet like 95 $ otr. Empty side pot, ranges, flop/turn play etc. and specially villain..

80$ bet on flop is waaaaaaaaaay to much 3 way.

ill bet 30ish.

Well I think its pretty hard to be objective, and i was interested in play on not only pre both mainly also flop + river. I could start Op with just pre, get a couple answers, do flop, etc. But that would take a long time. I am not a huge fan of "line checks" because I think in general people are bad at taking out future comings and happenings when evaluating. Like obviously I effectively hit nuts, so bombing prior streets may sneak into your mind more easier.

I think with spoils people can better objectively answer their opinions as the hand develop. i will keep your thoughts in mind though.

I am probably shooting myself in the foot and opening myself to absue by asnwer this, but...I was going to do the other induce



Should we really put huge concern into the stack with 28 at this point? Serious question, since I am somewhat new at some plo nuances.

You have a maniac image. Villain checked turn. Checking river is the worst option imo.

I'd bet big like 80%PSB

betting is pretty much always gonna be more +ev then checking in those spots @plo. because:
-people don't call river check-raises light in general
-he's very likely to have at least something, he doesn't need to bluff with

Bet flop.
If you are check calling flop, donk 100% of your range on this turn.
As played river is a bet, but you shouldn't come to the river like this.

Gotta bet the flop to protect. Pot is pretty large and you don't want to give out free cards.

River is a clear bet. Villain almost never bluffs here and isn't calling check raises here since your hand screams aaxx.
