My friend with 100 $ you should have been playing PLO2. 10 BIs is not enough when you are learning PLO. Also for best results you should really be focusing on just one game.

Yea, if they stack off pretty light, you want to have dominating draws, like nut flush, nut wrap and also better two pair and sets or top pair with redraws. That's why you need those premium hands, you need a lot of high cards with suits and not be afraid to go with it when you flop alright.

Hi. Generally if the table is loose you want to be tight. If opponent is a maniac you want to trap and call. If opponent is a station you want to valuebet wider. If opponent is a nit you fold to his aggresion. If most of the hands at the table go multiway and are 3bet+ you need to play really tight oop, hands like premium doublesuited (rundowns and pairs). You can loosen up a bit ip after you learned how they react postflop and make decisions depending on their action. You also need to watch with what hands they stackoff and c/c and c/f and adapt your play accordingly.

I personally use quite nitty BR management. I always want to have 100 BIs for previous level and additional 10 BIs for the new one. What that means: I'm playing PLO 10 now and I have 900 $ [(500 $ previous level) + (at least 100 $ this level)]. When I hit 1250 $ I'll take a shot at PLO 25. And if I hit 1000 $ I'll go back to PLO 10.
I think if you are learning the game you need quite a bit BIs even for micros. It's also important you feel comfortable playing with set amount of BIs and aren't afraid of particular plays because of few money in the account.

Ty. To be fair I didn't notice stack sizes because I was 4 tabling but I still want to 3bet because of range advantage and now that I see they were so short because of them getting it in light on boards good for my hand. My flop play on this board was poor.

Thank you guys. In retrospect I think smaller size cbet might have been way better. It's very static board so between 30-40 % pot seems better to maybe get called with worse str8 draws and 2 pairs or combinations of the two and see how it turns out. But even then if he raises me allin I don't think I can fold with his stats that indicate he is aggro.
