Bovada PLO5 - paired, 2-toned flop Bovada PLO5 - paired, 2-toned flop

I thought my 3-bet pre might buy me the button, and that my hand was ahead of a decent chunk of what UTG would raise there.

I almost always have the best hand on the flop there - it's very hard for someone else to have a T, and very easy for them to have KJ, AK, AJ, J9, a flush draw or any other number of combinations to which I wouldn't want to give a free card.

Also, on that site, if the villain has a T they'll almost always bet it - that's what's no nice about position in uPLO, the villains will tell you what they have. So betting the flop seems like a no-brainer

The SPR is already about 2, so the questions become bet size and how to respond to a raise.

Thoughts?

i tend to check in this situation, this hits their range pretty hard, and as you say they will let you know when the have it on the turn and wont bluff that much
