Coucou!

PLO is the greatest game and i want to build a bankroll, have fun and work a little on it. I never beat the micro CG, it's not only because of rake or a "continuous badrun", i just didn't work enough (at all??!!). I want to change things and think about the game.

I was looking on the last HU to start stuff, opponent is very loose and conservative, a 80/64/12 dude (SBvpip/BBvpip/PFR)

H1: i think fold is a mistake, i'm in position with some flopability, via propokertool this hand has 40% equity on 65% of flop VS 64% BB defense, and there were only few hands having this rate into this HU.
I folded because it wasn't connected enough, 2 danglers and only a bad Flush to make. but men, position is everything..........

H2:
Sweety hand imo so i isoraise (even if i'm "isolating" one person?). I just miss the opportunity to cbet on the flop, but it was not that great, i only had good straight draws but nothing with it and 2 diamond to counterfeit my outs. But it was a mistake, this flop hits my range hard, only think about actual strengh and not my perceived strengh by opponent.

H3:
I was thinking about raising preflop, this seems to be a great hand with such playability but i lost my balls. played too passively. On the flop ,can i do nothing but give up with bottom pair and some backdoor stuff? Maybe this is way too weak and i could see a turn card not that costly.

H4:
Flop cbet? i listen to jnandez87 and check back with the overpair in a no brain... i think i have no fold equity and hard time to handle the turn and river cards with no playability at all.

See you.
I don't think those are bad hands to pick up, but sorry if there are no action or big decisions to make, the last hand was hero KJT9DS vs vilain AAAx (action but no interest)

seems extremely nitty for huplo but hey, gl !

Good luck

i will play some play money tables on poker stars

anyone ever made a bankroll playing PLOHU? seems that the shallow stacks make the game ineffective and more swingy.

I've been building a roll playing huplo cash, it for sure is possible. I'm not even a great plo player but I have success HU. A few things I've observed so far; -----Most of the players open sitting are euro accounts and bots on wpn is definitely a thing. I try to spark up a convo and if they chat I mark them as real, if they dont I tend to avoid them.
- I open sit often since this gets a lot of US players to play me. Theres a handful of regs who will play me often, and then some random sits.
-Most ppl sit at max buyin and top up regularly. Those that dont I usually dont play since they'll hit n run 1 buyin anyways.
-If you lose 2-3 buyins its likely they will leave, so its important to play awhile when ahead with regs since they tend to give you the same respect when theyre up on you.
I play a lot of mtts during the day so mostly sit late hours but without a doubt huplo has been more profitable than 6 max or full ring. Im FadeTheSnap on wpn, sit me if you see me.

grunching, because im more of a spin player, but still experience with plo spins and plo cash:

1st hand: you can't just open fold AKxx, opening frequencies should be somewhat similar to nlhe, so you tend to open basically close to any2 and Axxx is pretty much never in the bottom 20%

2nd hand: what range do you think your opponent has?
i don't think you can let go of an openender here. you have basically 8 outs against anything that is not a straight. if he's got a FD your outs reduce to 6, but that should still be enough in order to call once in position.

3rd hand: you have a pair + bdfd + bdsd. No way you're not at least calling here. I personally think raising here is even better. Our hand has very good semibluffing potential and you can follow up your raise by betting many favourable turns.

4th hand: why are you just calling preflop? especially if that guy is aggro, it's basically a wasted opportunity to stack him with favourable allin equity by not 4betting him with any AAxx.
