At the micros you just have to keep getting it in good, and eventually things should start happening in your favour. Hands like this should also inform some other parts of your strategy, like the futility of bluffing or getting it in light. Even semi-bluffing light is very questionable, you just want to make sure that you're putting chips in with stronger hands than your opponents all the time.
I have none planned. The next step would be 100 PLO, but it's mostly the same experience as the 50 or 25 PLO games so it doesn't add anything new really. If I come up with any new interesting way to do it then maybe, but I haven't quite thought of anything yet.
I mean, if you bet the flop and turn with let's say the nut straight a full pot and the river comes and makes a flush possible, paires the board or makes a bigger straight possible. Your hand is almost always second best on showdown. And in PT3 this shows as a EV-. Even if you only have 1/6 pot bet left.
Checking the nuts on the BTN OTT against 3 players seems to passive. So i'm not quite sure how to handle such situations.
I'll give it go and try to play some more solid... I noticed i lose the most money by semi-bluffing draws against the nuts... Betting out a gutter and nut flushdraw OTT and getting reraised by the nuts on that moment. Numbers run small, but i get in more behind than in front. So that's a leak i need to close :)

Move up to where they respect your limp-backraises

Yeah i know... But some people just can't fold.
