Is it ok to push here or should i call villians small bet and take one off on the flop to see if the board pairs on the turn?

you cant do wrong here getting it in.

its difficult to play, once you get the flush. also, your straight is pretty obvious when you get it, so it will be hard to get value

I've just been grinding micro stakes PLO for a few weeks myself, and am by no means a master, but here's what I think:

At this level, the min bet on the flop, which you will see a lot, can have a few different meanings:

1. I have a draw, lets play this cheap.

2. I have a weak made hand, let's play this cheap.

3. I have a set and I want someone to reraise me.

4. I'm an idiot, and am betting for no reason at all.

I may be missing some possible meanings here, but these are what I'm used to seeing. In any of these cases, your hand will be doing good against most of his range.

In my opinion your hand is way too good not to raise and you should feel comfortable getting it in here most of the time if reraised. The only part of his range you need to worry much about are higher flush draws, and villains at this level will stack with far worse hands constantly.

I have run into similar situations a lot, and most of the time my opponents fold to my raise. When they don't they frequently are a solid underdog to my draw. Unless you have a read that this particular villain is one of the few tight 2PLO players, I say jam it.

Ram and Jam this one all day. Even if he shows up with the NFD and kills your flush draw you still have blockers to his draw while having a 13 card nut wrap.

These are the easy hands to play. Smash the pot button. (And of course, get used to the feeling of seeing him show up with a set of nines and having the 2c hit the turn, followed by the 6d, then you get that "I hit the frush" feeling before realizing he boated up....its fun.
