AA & NFD on flop

Blinds: $0.05/$0.10 (6 Players) BN: $19.97
SB: $27.72
BB: $30.64
UTG: $15.69
MP: $29.82 (Hero)
CO: $10.60
Preflop ($0.15) Hero is MP with 8 3 A Q
UTG folds, Hero raises to $0.30, 2 folds, SB raises to $1.00, BB folds, Hero calls $0.70
SB is a bit of a whale playing 47/27 with a 9.1 3 bet from SB
Flop ($2.10) A 7 J
SB bets $2.01, Hero raises to $6.02
I didn't want to flat bc if a brick comes ott I lose a lot of equity but we're very deep and top set is a definite possibility for him. Bad to get 280 in with TP and a draw? Against a tight player I would just call but he has a c bet in 3 bet pots of 63

Yeah top set is possible but I think against a guy playing that wide it's a bit MUBSy to just say, oh no he has AA....you do block it to a point as well...you have tp, nfd and a ton of backdoor draws here - and are in position, not a bad situation tbh...

Preflop
He 3bet so I would put him on AAxx, KKxx, AKQJ, maybe QQxx. I would call.

On Flop
He bets pot. With AAxx, or any other set hand, he has 64% equity. I don't think he would pot with KKxx or QQxx. Perhaps with AQcKcx, when he has 53% equity.

I would just call on flop and evaluate on turn.
If you think he would play like this 2pairs or a non ace fluh draw, then a raise on flop it's ok.

Just call and use your position. Being this deep and in position in PLO is such a huge advantage. Lowering the SPR benefits him greatly. Unless he has AA/JJ, he is going to be in a tough spot on pretty much any turn, and even with AA/JJ there are a lot of bad turns for him.

Imo raising makes his life a lot easier. Your hand is strong enough that it can call any turn, which is great because he is often going to be in a really tough spot on the river.
