2/4 Plo (6 Max) Bottom Set Oop


Recommended Posts

Ok, I know I should have folded this pre-flop: calling here was spewy. If I make the correct play preflop, then I'm not in this situation.Assuming we get to the flop, what is your line?1) Bet/fold as I did2) Check/call3) Check/raise4) Check/foldThe opponents:BB: Loose bomb by poker edge (59/12 through 17 hands). Aggressive when he's the preflop raiser, passive when he isn't.MP: Semi-loose bomb by poker edge (36.6/10/1.7 through 100 hands)Button: Semi-loose Bomb (44/19 through 138 hands). Having watched his play, I peg him as a good PLO player.

Well....smash always said that bottom set is for suckers. I'm honestly lost here. Check/pray for free turn/fold is my thought. Then again, what else could you have hoped to flop when calling with 4's and 7's?I don't think I'm willing to stack off here, that's for sure.Donk betting in to the raiser and button who you said is a solid player is almost like giving money away. As simo is becoming fond of saying to me - what are you trying to accomplish with this bet? No need to compound your preflop mistake by making more of them postflop. I stick with c/f.

LOL this hand was a good reminder as to why you should never play these sorts of hands (two small pair) *especially* OOP. These are the Omaha "trap" hands. They may look pretty, but they rarely hit (4 outs to a set) and when they hit, they're more likely to cost you money rather than win you the pot.

Flop's completely standard. Button looks to be solid and the only hands I can see him having that we beat are QJT9, JT98 or some kind of wrap. The fact that MP appears to be on a draw makes it less likely that button has the same cards however, and with all the jacks and nines being out, this is going to be a better set a ton. I honestly think you're drawing to one out about 60% of the time and you're flipping on most of the other possibilities. Definitely just get out of the hand here.And OFC, fold preflop. :club:
