My understanding is that solvers do this a lot in PLO from the cutoff because ranges are so similar between CO RFI and BU flatting. IE. there isn't a range advantage on many flop textures -- so, if you lead into the button it gives the button a huge positional advantage. Checking and seeing what the button does first helps to negate that.
Dang, that's cool. Never thought of that.
Especially multiway, checking seems good from CO because BTN has tough decision of ranging more than one opponent. He can mostly just bet with good hands because he has to beat multiple opponents. Therefore, "pseudo last action" makes sense for the CO since he can close the action if the BTN does bet.
Where did you read about PLO solvers and checking in the CO?
