Either bet pot/call a shove, or check/fold. Betting 8 here without knowing how to respond to a shove is pretty bad.

With the pot so big, I prob bet/call. You have some blockers to low straights, and the bdfd.

I think if I had bet $8 on the flop I would be planning to call the shove, but with two callers pf and few outs if you are beat I might check/fold. I am more inclined to bet/call if I had caught a pair or sd/fd on flop and there was no straight out.

Having said that I am pretty new to PLO is this flop strategy ok??

Betting 8 on the flop is only good if you want to induce a raise.

I thought about just check/folding, because i had no outs if i was beat, but that seemed really weak to me. is that common?

I prefer calling preflop. a larger bet or a check is probably better on the flop, call as played.

This is a thought that doesn't play well in omaha. If you are thinking about this all the time, I doubt you're gonna win much.

And I agree with the rest, bet more and call a shove.
