GG Poker - $0.05 PL Hi (6 max) - Omaha Hi - 6 players
Hand converted by Holdem Manager 3 (HM3 support worked fast and removed hand export bug)

BTN: $11.73 (234.6 bb)
SB: $10.03 (200.6 bb)
BB: $5.34 (106.8 bb)
UTG: $10.17 (203.4 bb)
MP: $13.74 (274.8 bb)
Hero (CO): $5.54 (110.8 bb)

SB posts $0.02, BB posts $0.05

Pre Flop: (pot: $0.07) Hero has A♠: 2♥: 2♠: A♥:
fold, MP raises to $0.17, Hero raises to $0.58, BTN calls $0.58, 2 folds, MP calls $0.41

Flop: ($1.81, 3 players) Q♣: 6♥: K♣:
MP checks, Hero checks, BTN checks

Turn: ($1.81, 3 players) 4♦:
MP checks, Hero?

MP is quite tight OK player, BTN very strange high VPIP player, lost and won many pots with mariginal hands.

Quite sure that MP doesn't have anything because checked 2nd time and because BTN checked flop he probably has nothing on blank turn. Time to make a bet?

Normally 3way we should be cautious with medium strength hands, but here and in PLO5 I would make a bet. We do get value from all kinds of draws, and as opponents are deep I wouldn't be worried that they start bluffing with raises. And my plan would be just check through River (maybe pairing non-club 4 or 6 is a small valuebet). When average micro players are deep, they tend to be even more passive. Might be the psychological issue where losing big stacks weights more on emotional level than winning more.

Turn bet is a bit thin, as I don't expect a lot of FE versus two players. But their range overall is clearly behind us, so bet for protection and value is justified in this specific case.

That was right conclusion. Both folded to my bet.

Flop:

I agree with Kyyberi about the bet under specific conditions. There are lots of loose passive tendencies and we benefit a lot from isolating against wide ranges that are too weak to continue but still have equity like a pair lower than :Qx: or weakest draws. You will frequently win at showdown with the best pair and sometimes even can check-call on certain runouts against a presuebly loose BTN who will continue overly loose and then will have incentives to bluff facing checks. MP will be forced to continue very straightforward due to the very bad relative position, we would generate a lot of FE and visibility. Finally when doing such plays it's recommendable to have a minimum of backup like here the bdnfd. I would bet something like 20-35% pot. I would check most of the turns though especially on hearts.

Turn:

Same is true for turn play with the difference after checking villains ranges are weakened and the blank devalues drawing components so I would size up to bet it around 50% pot.

I'm still checking. There are just so few rivers we like, and the ultra loose player is in position. Definitely an interesting situation and I do see the merits of betting.
