If you don't want to I totally understand and no worries. I obviously understand the 3 bet raise and 4 bet call. But if you're going to go with that hand after that flop why don't you push so that you can get him to fold marginal hands and even the aa that he almost definitely has there. It seems like by checking he's obviously pushing and then you're forced to call but by taking the lead you have some FE. PLO is my by far worst game but was wondering what you think of this. Thanks so much, uncforte.
Getting it in on the flop was fairly marginal to begin with, I was getting just a tiny bit more than the exact right price vs. AAxx but in a tourney as soft as that I should probably be folding. As far as c/c vs. shoving goes, I just don't see anyone folding an overpair to the board with a psb left after that pf action, just can't imagine it occuring. Would rather check and give him a chance to bet on the off chance he has something silly like AKQJ that we could be ahead of. I just don't think anyone is ever folding better in that spot tbh.
