Game is 5/5 in a carribean island, but plays ALOT bigger.
I am transitioning to PLO, reason for saying this, I used to have a lot of people ask me about hands in NL and most i would say "bro, u played fine, nothing can be done" so I'm wondering if this is one of those spots or i made a mistake.

Lastly, games here start at 10 pm and go till 3:45 am. Unless players agree to switch the game to 10-25, game will close at 3:45 am.

Hero (5000): been playing VERY TAG, pretty much fallowing everyones advise on PLO. No bluffs, playing my cards. Up 4000

V1 (1300): Game is always around him. Multi millionaire, every night he will "pot" to the river blind few times, so u can expect a few 3-4k pots that he is involved in BLIND.

V2 (3700): Reg, in his 60s. Plays ABC.
we are told about last orbit, and it brings us to this hand which is The last hand of the night. We are three handed and there is only one blind of 5.

Hero: JsJd4d5h, straddle to 10.

V2, raises to 20, V1 raises to 45 BLIND, Hero and V2 both call.

Flop: QdJs2h. V1 bets 135, Hero pots to 400something, V2 calls, V1 blind goes all in for remaining 1100something. Hero calls, (mistake???) V2 calls.
Reason i didn't pot, is V2 is the type of player who would slow play QQ, and it has happened MANY times in past that he even has limped with AA, and didn't pot on flop if hit his Ace.

Turn: 6c. Hero bets 2400 to put V2 all in.
Reason: because there is 3900 in pot, i know that I'm not going to fold to any bets from V2 at this point, since flush/straight didn't complete on turn. IF he has QQ, oh well, otherwise, I'm thinking that ill make him pay for river.

Thoughts?
Thanks!

I'm not sure what you are asking precisely. Whether you made a mistake shipping the second nuts with nearly 300bb semi dead money in the pot?

Come on man..just ship the fkn flop or if you want to wait for a save turn, ship the fkn turn and cry if he's good (or bad) enough to flat QQ on a drawy board.

Your logic is kinda flawed on the flop/turn tho. You flat because he could slowplay QQ but then you ship a blank turn?

And hey if you lose you're still up for the night.

Completely agree with u on the flawed logic. However, to be honest, basically i was trying to peel a safe card on the turn and then ship it; set over set, oh well ill ship that most days.

Now, to results, V2 calls after tanking for good 5 minutes, and usually he doesn't. River is Ah, and they both turn K 10, I loose lol.
However, V2 had KdQx10x and Xd in his hand from what I remember and the reason i posted this, is that he was saying i made a mistake to pot on the flop and open the door for V1 to repot, and basically I should have waited for turn to pot and that he would have folded (Im sure u guys all see that he was calling 2400 to win almost 6400 on the turn)
is he correct? or regardless of what he says, what i did was OK?
thanks for input!

Villain 2, reg in his 60s, plays ABC, tells you you made a mistake in poker. Now imagine the game was hold'em. Would you do anything but smile, nod and say "Sure, thanks. So did you guys see the Warriors game yesterday?"

wait so this guy called it off with just top pair and an open ender no flush draw? and you wonder if you played it wrong?

yea you should have let this guy draw for 100 instead of 3000 lol

anyone else folding preflop here? tight raiser opens and is blind 3 bet, a 4 bet is not exactly out of the world. although he's probably still only 4 betting AA so maybe call is reasonable.

folding is pretty terrible.

almost as terrible as making this bad beat post disguised as a strategy post.
