1 - imo is b/f>c/f>other stuff
2 - i think is spewy. u can find better spots against this gentleman. call the flop and see what happens on the turn i suppose
3 - is std

1 good
2. bad
3. bad.

you gotta give some reasoning heyeveryone

Ive hardly played any PLO, but here are my thoughts fwiw

Hand 1- Id b/f or c/f. I think c/f is fine although id like to be c/r some spots for balance if hes going to autobet every time you 3bet/check. THere are really no turn cards that you are going to want to see, so i dont continue.

Hand 2- How bad is folding this hand pf to the 3bet?

Flop is a call or possibly even a fold given your hand and board texture. Im not sure what to do on alot of turn cards seeing as he will prob pot alot of turns. I think raising is def a spew, you wont get action from anything you want to

Hand 3- I like it. I think there are alot of turn cards we may not be sure what to do with OOP so i just ship it here. Got the nut gutter too.

2 is definte spew. hand 3 eh your only in good shape against akq. I dont know if I like it. Hand 1 looks standard not that big of a mistake if any.

Hand 1 - Bet/fold is preferable I think, depends how aggressive he is. I don't really like 3-betting pre if he's that spewy though.

Hand 2 - Flat the flop, go from there.

Hand 3 - Standard.

Sop posting results and post better reads please.

Bet/fold Hand One.

Hand Two is pretty bad.

Three looks good.

1. Don't 3 bet. You are going to miss most flops and he is a monkey.
2. Fold pre or 4 bet if he has been 3 betting a ton. Thats what I do with this sort of hand but my opponents call me an idiot all the time so take it fwiw.
3. Perfect.

hand 1 i dont think 3 betting is so good. as played i would bet fold sometimes but your line is fine too
hand 2 neverrrrrrrr a reason to get over 200$ in on that flop with just aces and nothing else
hand 3 fine

Disclaimer: I don't have that much HU experience

hand 1 - I prefer a bet/fold, but I don't hate c/f and don't think c/f is a big mistake.

hand 2 - I really dislike getting it in here, I can't think of many hands that you're ahead of and there are obviously tonnes that you are behind. Given your description of villian, sounds like you're confident you can outplay him, so just wait for a better spot.

hand 3 - mmm I don't have any strong opinions on this one. Obviously not great that the money went in with him being a 60/40 fav on flop. But against the following range (which I think is strong) 98**,JJ**,TT**,77**,T7**,JT**
its 57/43 add a bit of junk in there (which I think is realistic) and your equity won't look too bad. Probably fine just to get it in given that your OOP.

Isn't pf in hand 1 kinda bad?

I don't think so. You're suited to the Q, obv the accompanying ace is good.
That said you aren't to hit that many flops.
I think the big list of starting hands has it in the top 8.5%

So I woulda thought you should be 3 betting it.

I'd be interested to hear what %age of hands people think you should be 3-betting pre in HU plo.

when you 3bet 10% of hands you don't necessarily have the top 10% of hands in your range. its a bit different than in NLH since hardly anyone folds to 3bets in huplo but the point still stands.

OP i wouldn't 3bet hand 1. you're gonna end up b/f or c/f a ton of flops which is not good vs someone who isn't folding much. on the flop both b/f and c/f are fine depending on his tendencies which i don't think you specified. having the Ace of hearts makes it closer to a b/f.

hand 2 is bad imo. its a SA/WB situation and the slightly ahead may be optimistic. if the 2 was a Q/J it would be closer but i think calling and using position would be better than just letting him shovel money into the pot.

hand 3 I'm not thrilled but I can't fold after betting. this might be a flop to induce some bluffs tho.
