Hello, i just started to learn PLO. I haven't bought HEM for PLO so i don't have stats about opps, SB seems to be playing almost every hand and CO seems tight, no more reads. Should i do anything differently? And do we get it in preflop?

It's a pot limit game, so you can't get it in preflop :f_biggrin:
But yes, if someone was to reraise you, it's a very easy shove preflop.

As for the flop, bet a little less, say $7 as you need to balance your value hands with your bluffs. You don't want people to work out you are bluffing because you don't bet full pot (and you also don't want to be bluffing full pot as this will cost you a lot of money in the long term).

This is a perfect hand to be reraising with preflop when in position. It should always be jammed on the button.

I know :f_biggrin: But you got the question :)

Yeah, i need to work on betsizes(well, that was first serious PLO session ).

Do we get it in with any AAxx preflop? or we want some stronger hands? Like in that hand i have suited king to support my AA.

Oh, and i had another hand, don't have PLO HEM and it's difficult to dig in hand history files.

Stacks:
BU(Hero) 22,16$
SB 30,03$ no reads

Hero has A:hA:c7:c7:s

Preflop action: folds to hero, hero pots, SB 3bets pot, hero 4bets pot, SB flats

Flop(10,44$): J:cJ:d3:d

I had 17$ left, he checks to me, i bet 7$ and he shoves, can i fold here? I'm getting 3,5:1 odds.

just to clarify, my reply is for the opening post, not the 2nd hand...

even tho we are deep, i'm always raising this hand pre in position and trying to stack off... we have ok aces, we are way ahead of KKxx, and even against another AAxx we are rarely in bad shape (AsJsAcTc for example is pretty bad for us, but we still chop alot of the time). especially at micro's, where people will call these bets with all sorts of weird and funky hands, i see no problem with potting it pre.

on the flop, after they both check to you, you have about 1.5 PSB left, so i see no problem with potting it and getting it in if raised. the board is fairly dry, and we can fold out alot of high card hands and usually only get called by sets and wraps.

as a side note, how would you have played the flop if a. DinFan bet $6 into you, or b. the flop was Qs Tc 7s?

JJ3 with 2 diamonds is one of the better flops for your hand (obviously J33 would be even better!)

You fist pump call if he raises you all in. Heads up you're going to get crushed if you're looking to fold hands like this on the flop so weakly.

Thanks for the questions, makes me think -> makes me learn :f_grin:

A) It would be kinda strange to see a donk bet on such flop. If DinFan is quite good, he'll usually put me on AAxx imo, so he'll check most of the time expecting me to fire so he's getting more value with his strong hands. On the other hand, he can expect me to raise his bet on such flop, and this way he gets value+doesn't allow me to take a free card.
I wouldn't actually know what's the right action to take In-game it would probs look weak and i would raise it up.

B) I think we have to fold if someone bets on such flop, i wouldn't expect to ever be ahead after someone donks. And i don't think that cbet will be successful often enough so i would check behind and hope for J non spade or A :f_biggrin: (not stacking off if A comes(esp A :spade:), but at least i have 10 outs for river)
And if we check flop, i fold to bet on turn and take a stab on blank turn cards.
(this scenario seems easier :f_biggrin: )
