PLO 2/5 game
Hope to get an opinion on a hand I'm thinking I've played very poorly.
Stacks: me:1100
Villian: 1200
I have Ace, 8,7,6 nut clubs a heart and a diamond in the bb 4 handed, the guy on the button makes it 40 to go and I call as does the sb, flop comes 3,4,j all clubs. It checks to me so I check and the button bets 50, into ~150, the sb raises to 100 and I come up over the top to 200 even, buttons insta mucks and the sb thinks for a second and throws the 100 in. The turn comes the 7 of spades, and he leads into me for 200, I call and we see the river 2 of clubs. He thinks for a second and checks to me and I quickly go all in for the rest ~600ish, anyway he thinks for a long time and then shows me the queen of clubs and folds.
Any advice on how I could have played this better?
Preciation in advance for any helpful advice given by anyone.
Looking back on it I feel as though if I bet small on the river ~200-300 he has to at least call if not ship it on me. Hindsight is 20/20.

I had between 1000-11
I am probably raising more on the flop and turn. Once we make a cold 3b on the flop we are already announcing that we have a pretty polarized range of nut flushes and Ac blockers and maybe top set with some blocker potential. I would be raising over his turn lead with this whole range since it should have a good mix of values and bluffs. (nuts 47% on the turn, semi bluffs with trips 16%, nut blockers the rest)
Raising more on early streets has a huge impact on the SPR later on. IE:
As played you had a turn SPR ~1.4 (860/600)
make it $250 on the flop we have SPR~1.1 (810/700)
make it $300 on the flop we have a SPR <1 (760/800)
For me the flop raise is some where around the $250 and then turn around 350 river 460 AI. for sure always just ripping it over the turn lead because my range is so strong and pretty balanced here.
Your line looks ridiculously strong. I'm surprised you got as much value as you did.
If you're going to raise otf, yes, employ bigger sizing (depends on dynamic and what you perceive he thinks of sizing on these boards in general). Select whatever looks bigger, or you think in his eyes, he will see as "leveraging".
I'd imagine he wouldn't have many flushes in his range, so I'd actually be more likely to peel otf rather than raise (flushes might fold to your raise, doubtful he has sets, and bluffs will shutdown, so why not peel and keep in the btn and get value that way?)
What software is being used for that range calculation? It looks slick and I should give it a shot. :)
Preflop open to 40 in a 2/5 game?
Might have been a BTN straddle. However, OP is terrible at telling HH.
If you're going to raise flop, raise larger. Bet turn bigger.
