Hey, interested what others think is the right play in this spot.
This is online, dont have HH.

6max, 100BB EFF

UTG R 3.5BB, HERO MP 3BET AArT2s 12BB, everybody else fold, UTG calls

Flop: J54r, Pot is 24BB

I am more interested what is your play here vs unknown rec.
Do you for example prefer pot and call off or 3/4 and fold and why?

Also how much your strat changes if this was vs reg?

In a vacuum do you expect do get more often raised here by rec or reg?

Thx.

I could see betting or checking here - maybe since we have the A2 I would check, where as with bare AA I'd bet. I wouldn't expect to get raised too often - denying equity here is more important with bare AA vs your hand.

If you decide to bet, what sizing do you prefer and what is your plan when you get raised.

Playing live (in my area) I would prob bet 12-15bb and perhaps even call off.

Online however, even IP, I think V would be much more aware that a 3b range doesn't connect very often to this Flop and may be ready to x/r here. Even if V hits two pair on Turn after checking through we really aren't too bad in a non-bloated pot to peel River.

As you know, any bet in PLO gets magnified when followed up by a raise/pot and any betting here on the Flop puts us really close to GII territory when we start with 100bb. GL

I'd prob go 50-60% on this texture - I think potting is terrible given stack sizes. I think if you do bet you're unfortunately going to bet/folding - you're about 35% to a reasonable pot range from the villain. You actually lose about 6% equity if you change your 2 to an 8, although AAT8 would benefit from denying equity. Either way you shouldn't be getting raised too often unless villain is absurdly aggressive which changes your actions.

I like a bet, and I like a big bet. Why? We both flop poorly but we have a range advantage and should push that. I think we want to be betting the vast majority of our range here (60-75%) of our range, and of these bets, most of them should be for pot (60% of our 60% or more).

So, AAxx? This makes up the vast majority of the range numbers above and these should be bet with 100% frequency on this board to push this range advantage... and 70% of the time pot.

AAT2 is a pure pot sized bet here.
