Hello guys, I wanted to discuss a hand I played recently. Both tjbentham & mikki696 are known regulars in high stakes PLO. At first I was happy with the decision I made in this spot, however still would like to clear it out as this hand popped to my head few times. If we decide to check/decide on this flop, what are our options? Looking forward to your comments.

Seems good to me, considering they will play very well against a jam and you don't have much equity against their calling ranges and there are a ton of other flops, you can jam with naked aces.
I'm a low stakes fish though ;)
Any chance you can post your story?
I remember playing against you at 50/100NL years ago by the way and I remember having friends that took shots against you as well 5-7 years ago, as we thought you were a fish, back then ;)
I'm mostly wondering whether you were always good, and just ahead of your time, or just got good by playing very loose-aggro in tough games ?
It depends a lot, I have been playing poker for quite some time and there is time when your strategy works out and the time, when people realize how to play back at you, ups and downs like in every thing in your life :) I went up from playing 0.02/0.05$ long time ago :) Getting back to the hand I decided to check fold against tjbenham's bet, most likely to fold to mikky's bet as well :)
without Backup, first to act vs two other Good Players behind - i would x/F it. We have better hands to Get it in. vs two random hands we only have 25% Equity
Thanks. Didn't realize that you worked your way up through the stakes :)
I would check get it in vs. mikki and Check fold to a bet from bentham. Bentham cannot bet light when mikki is left to act. If flop checks through, I´ll donk 234579 non diamond.
Sound like a plan, the backup for getting it in vs mikki ?
He can easily take stab at it, expecting you to just pot if you are going with it and bentham to lead if he is going with it. So gives mikki a good incentive to stab and commit vs you with less than premium holdings. Would be foolish for either of you to go for a check raise so if it comes checked to mikki he will win the hand a lot by just betting his whole range. Knowing this I think we easily have the odds against his range.
Taking that into account & knowing that tjbentham is a decent reg, don't you think he can check his premiums expecting mikki will stab most of the time as he is getting mikki's shove every time he has get it in hand & gets bluffs as well while checking.
It is possible but highly unlikely. There is a lot in the middle already. I cannot see a hand bentham would check that he is going with. not even 9986 with diamonds. Mikki doesn´t need to shove. He can bet fold against bentham and commit vs you. Thing is that it is hard to see that scenario materializing, I mean bentham check shoving.
