SB: $20.52
BB: $11.41
UTG: $10.00
Hero (MP): $10.00
CO: $56.13
BTN: $8.00

Pre Flop: ($0.15) Hero is MP with J A K J
1 fold, Hero raises to $0.35, CO calls $0.35, 3 folds

Flop: ($0.85) 3 9 K (2 players)
Hero bets $0.71, CO raises to $2.94, Hero ???

No reads or history vs villain at this point. But I haven't seen him fool around and seems like a pretty solid player post flop. His stats are 22/16 with aggression factor of 2.6. That doesn't really say much. But as a default what is the best move here for you?

Call? But I do not want to give him control of the pot.

Shove? We'd be getting it in as an underdog, we have around 34% equity vs all sets.

not iffy at all. you got toptop + nfd. gii!
i would prefer to c/r.
as played you can call and lead on Ts or Qs. but shoveing is better imo considering KQJT w/ fd is a big part of his range.

KQJT with FD is not a big part of his range. It's actually a very small part of it. There are way more combos of K9, 99 and KK.

We have about 40% equity vs a raising range of K9+ and QJTdd. Getting it in is definitely a bad idea. If we had fold equity, that would have been very different, but I don't think this villain is going to be raise/folding 3way on K93dd against our cbet.

Calling and folding should be pretty close in EV (which is pretty much the definition of an iffy spot).

So in this spot do you have enough equity to shove 100% of the time, are these the types of situation you should hope for in PLO// BTW what if hero has a non nut flush draw does it become a fold or call?....
