Pre Flop: ($0.15) Hero is MP with K Q 5 A
UTG calls $0.10, Hero raises to $0.45, CO raises to $1.60, 5 folds

no way imo, but i could even be convinced otherwise... dang shortstacks!!

What does Hero do? Is it easy call or maybe easy fold?

Villain: Vacum, no reads, but we have played together ca 10 hands. He doesnt re-load and hes from United Arab Emirates.

UTG goes all-in $225.46, Hero ?!?!?

On one hand, it's not a good spot for him to bluff, but I can't fold this, at least not with a blocker, vs an unknown.

I'd prolly check this flop....is that ok? I can understand the dynamic being slightly different at PLO400 than micros, but i doubt anyone will draw to non-nut clubs 4 way, 2 pair is unlikely and therefore any action we get will be polarized towards Acxcxx and sets. If the board were 729 then I like betting more.

River looks pretty standard - price is just too good to make a hero fold.

Please any Input on stats after logging 10k hands; Had some run good I know.






Trying to get to plo5 as soon as posible.

vacuum basically, seems fishy tho

Hero ?

b19$/c.
might call with draw or raise with two pairs which you do okay against.
may fold one pair or even 72. I like to bet here and not folding if raised.

Thx, most people I discused that hand with had the same opinion.

tight range for vilain...
NB: I discarded AA because of PF action and because it's one combo

you can play much more hands from CO, BTN, BB. aim to stats like 24/16 and 3bet around 5%, that gives a good start to loosen it up a bit, you play very tight atm, which might work at the lowest stakes, but gets increasingly harder to turn a profit when you move higher and play as tight as you now do.

also aim to 65-70% fold vs steal on BB, you give up your blinds way too easy.

good luck.

Hero...

.... bet call or check fold?

Elrazor I usually c/f against 2 opponents.

What do you guys think of that line?
I need 42% eq to get it in profitably but I have only 37% versus a made flush.
Vilain is a bad reg I guess. VP32/PFR15/CBET50.
Do you think I have enough FE to make this raise profitable?

Probably need very good pot odds to call here, its just way too likely villain
has a flush draw, very hard for him to have bluffs besides two pair but those usually have a flush draw as well. Probably close to 15% if I had to guess off the top of my head.

Definitely too much equity to b/f vs one player, I would probably bet something like 5.5 and fold if both players jam, call vs one. Too much equity imo to even consider c/fing. If positions were slightly different I would consider check/something but given the BB has to worry about the CO still, you force BB to fold some hands that have significant equity vs you.

Why would you want FE with top set? Seems like a simple call and play poker. Its definitely more awkward as villain probably won't make too many mistakes on later streets and we might but should be enough to make calling more +EV unless I am missing something.

Yeah, this was my thinking.

Incidentally, once the action came back to me i had 32% equity, and pot odds of 31% against a pair, wrap and flush draw which aside from sets is the top of his range.

Hi, guys.
Created a thread with a hand from $215 FTOPs in HSPLO.
I guess it has borderline buy-in between 2 forums, so I posted there, but would certainly appreciate your feedback too.

Thing is you don't make fold alot of had with decent eq. I'm pretty sure any J will flat and 2 pairs or pair with draw or big draws raise here. And in the end you manage to get 22.5$ on the flop to win a 50.5$ pot. so for your bet/call strategy you need 45% eq. even if assuming you get a FE of 4$. it's not a winning move.

Not sure where you are getting your numbers esp the 45% eq. Checking flop would be really terrible, the only very strong hands on this texture are combo draws, and sets. Sets are extremely discounted, besides JJ. J4,J5 and 45 are also very discounted. Given that we rarely have horrible equity/the best hand, not to mention the fact we have two back door draws, and plenty of hands have equity against us, even a naked 4 has around 40% equity, folding that equity is extremely useful and it completes takes away the disadvantage of being OOP. We also deny a free card and force both villains for a decision for their stack, making the first player to act after hero make a lot of folds that he should not make it if the pot was HU.

villain plays 91/21 1.8 af over 166 hands

1st hand



2 hand

vs nit/tag 18/12 3-b 9.9 cbet 80 over 160 hands

@cocktails: hand 1 is fine as it is vs a 91/21 he might have A9xx in his range but most of the tons of draws

Hand2 I would actually fold as you say he is a nit and he might take you away a ton of outs due to the spade flushdraw and some Axxx or even AAxx

Just my opinion, gl

Hey ,
How would you play this hand

I got AKQ5 (button) ace suited
Preflop raise and call , i call too

What u think...
Tell me please

PLO10, readless, 5-handed

Stacksizes : BTN ($8.85), I cover

Hero opens AhKhQT to 30c utg, CO/BTN/BB call, $1.25 pot to flop

Flop : 4hTsKd. BB Checks, Hero bets pot, BTN only caller. $3.75 pot, BTN has $7.30 behind

Turn : 7s. Hero?

Also, any great ss PLO videos I can look at? I've read Hwang's books, but I'm still super raw and too tight/passive

Looks fine to me.
