    River feels like an awkward spot now. I don't think I can x/c now because I don't expect the average PL25 rec to significantly underbluff here. I neither think I can clearly valuebet though. Maybe just sth like 1/2p or less and hope he calls with a weaker flush or makes a bad herocall with even worse. Betting small might at some point entice him though to go for the naked ace bluff. Still, kinda unlikely but I think the possibility is there. So what's the best play here? I even though about checking the turn but I'm quite sure I wanna bet there and protect/get value from sets, 2p or a str8, especially 3way.

    Bet a bit more on the turn. He's not folding a set and we can get value from flushes aswell.

    I'm valuebetting river. Sure, in a perfect balanced world he's uncapped, but you'll also find people calling with Qcc/Jcc. Facing a raise we have an easy fold.

    Anyway i think it's clear you should go for value on the river.

    Don't accomplish much by checking to induce as most of villains range may just check back here. Just bet as a default here.

    Ah, sorry, this should have been either of
    "I expect the average PL25 recreational to underbluff here" or
    "I don't expect the average PL25 recreational to bluff enough here"

    pick your favorite

    It seems to be okay in PLO to call with double hands (Kxs + top pair) on the flop multiway no matter what (or the BB folded). There being no callers yet (with a possible Axs) and just one player behind (who just called preflop vs CO open raise).

    On the turn, one player has checked and there is just one behind, the BTN. This is also a similar non crowd situation, that makes one to think one has a good enough hand. One does not worry about a raise or a check raise (could save money, I suppose). If a worse flush fold that would have called a smaller bet or a river bet, then not good in that case. It was a 4 way flop.
