River: ($11.08) 2 (2 players)

In general, when do you guys choose to semi bluffraise or to flatcall?
Raise: there is big FE (it s hard to hit this board hard) we have a lot of nice turns, but we are deep and OOP and we have to fold to a flop 3 bet,
Call : We may use our 6 blocker, we keep the pot small, we have nice turns, but sucks to play oop without the initiative
So here for example?

Would you raise turn after he barrels pot? It sucks very much when we get 3 bet on the turn if we raise.. He can go all in then and we wont have the Equity with our gutter+ NFD. (assume we raise to around 10$ on the turn)

I would definitely flat turn once he pots. I would be pretty surprised if he was doing this with a weak hand or bet-folding, so let's just call and see a river in position.

The river is a pretty good bluff card for you, but I'm not sure how often this river bluff will actually work against the player pool at ..05/.1.

From my experience what happens quite often when you raise the flop is that they call one street and fold the turn. I would choose that line because otherwise ou are jus thoping for villain to give up or hit a T.
As played I wouldnt raise the turn for the reasons you mentioned. A backdoordraw has higher implieds and you are drawing to the nutstraight/flush, which will give you the chance to make a valuebet that he just cant fold to.

If you have a read that they will peel once and fold, that makes raising a great line. I don't really agree that calling flop is just hoping for villain to give up or hit a T. You're calling because you have enough of a hand and enough equity to call in position.

Disclaimer: I don't play PLO.

I would say this is pretty low in your range and you do have the 6 blocker for the straight otr, so I'd probably throw out a river bluff as has been suggested.
