4 handed game vilain is 43bbs effective, i cover

Vilain has been quite active but havent seen him get out of line yet.

Folds to vilain in sb who pots to 3bb

Im in bb with AQT5
3! To 9bbs

Vilain flats

Flop (18bbs) : AJ6

Vilain leads for 15bbs and has 19bbs behind... hero???

I'm stacking off with top pair and a gutshot this shallow.

Possible to see the turn. We want to pick up an open-ender, hit 2 pair, and avoid clubs. But if we call here its 19 to win 67, we probably have to call if it's a non-club anyway, so I just stack off to avoid getting bluffed when a club comes.

43bb Omaha is more bingo than anything.

If V has A6, we aren't in terrible shape. If he has AJ, we have 7 clean outs. If he has clubs, he's less likely to have the ace. If he has JJ, welp. AK would be worst thing we'd want to run into.

SPR ~2 on the flop, we stack off 40% equity profitably, just seems like we are borderline. Fold is not the worst thing, but I'm not a nit.

This hand is 4-handed and tends towards more aggression, but the 6-handed play versus an SB short stacker open raise is to only 3-bet the double suited version of AQT5.

AQT5/ds 3-bet and call a 4-bet.

All other versions of AQT5 cold call the SB open raise and play some poker as deep as the short stacker's stack makes possible. The SPR here will be about 7 which is still deep enough that it makes it difficult for the SB to fast play a lot of hands out of position. You kicked the short stacker in the balls as best you could by negating his ability to get the SPR low.


If however the SB had open limped, then we would raise any version of AQT5 that is double suited or single suited to the ace. And if he limp-raises, then we call the raise.

why the **** did you 3 bet? Since i started playing 2/4 up PLO, i'm seeing even stupider ****. If you 3bet a short stack and that flop comes, you really don't want to put him in when he leads? What flop did you expect? weird spot..? yea, if you're bad and get put in these spots with aq high in PLO.

Standard stack off at spr under 2
