ugh we dont beat a ton and are only ahead if villain has a double flush draw. that being said, lets look at our odds. 1.30 to call into about 3 dollars, as far as pot odds i think we can call here.
The problem is, it looks like villain probably really wants a call based on the line he took.
* Does he seem like the kind of villain that would check raise draws?
I mean PLO isn't usually a check raising kind of game, so this seems weird so if villain was decent, this is an insta fold. If villain was monkeying around a bit and trying to be fancy, aka check raising a decent amount, this is an insta call imo at this level someone check raising and being weird is probably the NLHE type.
We could possibly get moved off of the best hand (kind of), we are like a coin flip against a double flush draw, but it has to be naked, if he has a decent piece of this flop we are screwed or just barely ahead. So my vote is insta fold most of the time

I think this is probably a fold. I'm not a big fan of betting the turn into a short stack with such a weak hand. I probably bet the turn myself most of the time, but I think it's a leak.

yea I called, and you guys are right it's a fold
I had figured there were a billion draws out there, so I wanted to charge him the max
hands like this are why I'm gonna be busto at 5plo

fold, he has a set. barring reads, i havent seen anyone c/r any kind of draw ever. only sets. yes, even on extremely drawy boards.
