Your bet isnt really for value it's for protection so full pot seems the only way to go
Trouble is on any scary turn he can jam his whole range and you dont have the odds to boatmine the river
One of those PLO situations where you have strong equity but almost no playability on future streets hard for villain to make mistakes
Like literally he can call with any 4 and jam any 4, 5, 6, 9, T, J, or h and you have to fold. 27 cards
Despite how insane it might sound I could see a strong argument for checking back
1. Disguises our hand
2. Induces some bluffs on the turn
3. Can balance with rest of our 3b range
4. Halves equity vs. Strong villain holdings on brick turns
If he calls the flop with any four and jams all of those turns with his entire range, as you describe, you'll have a call on all of them, and a
very easy one at that. This is easily verifiable by doing an equity sim.
Don't interpret this as me saying a pot-sized bet is bad, obviously. I'll let someone else pillory the checking back idea. :P
