Well you rivered the nuts and just called, so I can see a pretty big leak in your game right off the bat. :f_biggrin:

The flop is quite an easy fold to be honest. Let's break the hand down for you.
You're in the big blind with a super weak hand and 3 players see the flop.

When SB bets out here, have a think about what he might have and how strong a hand he is typically going to have to bet into 2 opponents.

I think at worst he has an ace here, and if he does have at least an ace, he is going to have you outkicked (that is a hand like AK). This is the best case scenario for you, where you have 10 outs, drawing to a 3, 6 or 8. If villain has 2 pair it's a similar scenario, but where things get bad for you, is if villain has either a straight or a set.

In these scenarios you're drawing to 3 or 4 outs respectively. In fact there are no good scenarios for you on this flop, you have to assume you are behind, therefore folding is the only option.

People are less likely to bluff in limped pots because the pot is so small it isn't worth the risk, plus when we factor in that you need a stronger hand to bet when first to act, than when you are on the button, I think you are way behind against SB's range.

So preflop checking is fine, post flop you should fold at every opportunity, until the river, where you should be raising because you have the NUTS. :f_biggrin:

to be honest I played 2 PLO tables wich is new for me and 3 NLH.. so I did not notice that UTG was off the pot, when it was my turn on river I took time and thought if I should push or call and I chose call, cos I wanted UTG money too! :-)
