[PLO50] AAQ6d 4way

What are the reasons for not leading OTF in this scenario?
Imo taking the pot down OTF is better than facing some nasty river or turn spots if it gets checked through.

I think I would just lead and pot it.

OTR I would not call a bet with just two pair. Especially when BB is betting. I think his range hits this type of board the most don't hink he has a bluffs here to be honest.

our hand is not that faced up like if we pot into 3 villains its obv we dont do it without at least NFD. I thought a checkraise flop might be more +EV than the standard line. but since we block NFD and couple of straights I guess we wont see much action on this flop and if we do we will GII anyways when pot flop. so yeah, should have just pot the flop i guess. although we have a pretty big checking range if we dont have a NFD

I think check-raising 4-way on this flop is overplayed. 4-way we have to be very straightforward and I am not balancing at all. Our hand is mediocre and with the nutted draw and potential SDV I would check-call. It can make sense to check-raise some of your very strong hands like nutstraight+future-blocker/pair/redraw, nutdraw/2pair+future-blockers, top-2pair+nutflushdraw, top-2pair+flushdraw+wrap or nutstraight-redraw, strong combo-hands or top-set+draw if the dynamic is loose/aggressive and you can loosen up further to strong hands like nutflushdraw+gs, naked set, etc.. if the bettor is sticky and has no range-awarness.

The turn would have been nice opportunity to raise pot 3way. But since we are 4-way and BB likely will have it (with juicy odds his wide range is the most likely to contain a set or straight) I am just folding the turn (Pot-Equity 23% Draw-Equity 19%). No implieds here imo. River is a clear fold, you´ve been chasing the :heart:-nutflush or an A♠: and they did not come, he will not have enough bluffs in his range for you to call profitable (I guess A♦::diamond:xx and combo-stuff is possible but primarily he will have straights and fulls). Do not forget, after leading into 3 players his range should be pretty strong.
