PLO 200, 100bb.

I am in the BB with: Q865ss, AJ74ss(suited ace), JJ64ss, KQT2ss, T866ss, A844ss(suited ace), KT76ss, Q665ds, T974ss, AQ87ss(not suited ace), etc.

1. Reg HJ opens pot, folds to me
2. Reg HJ opens pot, Reg BTN calls
3. Reg HJ opens pot, Fish BTN calls

I'm used to folding all of these hands, only playing vs BTN opens

Am I playing too tight?

Fold all. KQT2ss and T866ss would be the closest of that set if fish is in.

OOP against strong regs I probably wouldn't defend super wide with hands that flop super marginal value hands and/ or draws, but with any sort of known fish involved in the pot, you can take your post flop edge and defend super wide, hopefully getting involved w/ the fish for some profitable spots.

What about BB vs Reg CO 3-3.5x open? I'd actually be folding all of these in that spot too, however it seems most regs call all that and more, so I really have no idea whats standard here.

1. AS it's heads up wioth me closing action at a discount, I'm calling most of those hands, T866ss KT67ss, T974ss, Q856ss seem pretty speculative

anyone folding AJ74ss(suited ace), JJ64ss is very bad imo

2 and 3 I might only play the two above stronger hands, as the hands you have selected are mostly all weakened by multiway action/OOP

the AQ87 is also a nice -ish hand and I probably call that one there too
