Party Poker $200 Pot Limit Omaha Hi - 3 players
The Official 2+2 Hand Converter Powered By DeucesCracked.com

Hero (BTN): $196.00
SB: $345.93
BB: $205.67

Pre Flop: Hero is BTN with J

Hero raises to $7, SB calls $6, 1 fold

Flop: ($16.00) 2

(2 players)
SB checks, Hero checks

Turn: ($16.00) 6

(2 players)
SB bets $15.20, Hero calls $15.20

River: ($46.40) 6

(2 players)
SB bets $45.40, Hero calls $45.40

In retrospect, I think I should've simply bet the flop. Thoughts?

Always bet flop.

Turn call is marginal, but not great, as you are under-repped, but only have a redraw to top 2.

River call is spew.

River call is ok against some players and spew against others. it comes down to reads and gameflow

Betting flop is generally good though that flop makes a lot of pair and oesd+ hands that will c/r you and may make you fold the better hand. Once you check the flop, that turn is a fold because there are very few rivers that you can call or value bet. One of the most common issues for PLO players is multi-street play (geometric pot growth is underlying reason why issue exists). Calling on turn in a small pot without a clear river plan is one such example.

Flop check is fine, fold turn. River call is good against some and awful against others. Generally awful without a read, but you are playing on PartyPoker.
