Comment | bela192 commented on PLO10: AA Multiway

Math says folding would be a huge mistake - on the flop you're calling roughly $6 to win $36, getting pot-odds of 5.4:1, which means you need ~16% equity to break even, if you have more than that you make a profit. With AAxx (with bdfd) you will always have 16%+, even in a 4way allin pot (18-20%, if everyone always puts the rest in with any pair/any draw)

Even if you ignore the players behind and assume they're folding: after BB shoves you get pot odds of 3.7:1, so in that case you need 22% (HU pot you have 40-50% vs any pair/draw, vs tightest possible range of AA, KK, QQT, JJ, 77, KJ, K7, J7 still 27%), in 3way pot (if CO calls) you get 4.7:1, need 18%, have 28-31%

In short: DO NOT FOLD

if you put him on mostly 98xx/456x (which I agree with), our eq on the turn is about 23%. I'd probably check-call a small bet, check-fold to a pot bet, bet-call only if I had the club flush draw as well (make the Js the Jc, your eq jumps to 42%)

Comment | bela192 commented on Which vids to watch?

I agree with the above. And as a starting point for PLO beginners, I think the article series "PLO from Scratch" on donkr.com is really helpful: http://en.donkr.com/Articles/Category/PLO-from-scratch!-14

he's getting more than 3:1 on the river with a bluff catcher, and your 55/88 hands are a small part of your range... you could have busted straight draws, counterfeited 2 pair, lower spades. Dont think he can/should fold with these odds

BN: $29.89
SB: $25 (Hero)
BB: $14.81
UTG: $74.80
HJ: $18.72
CO: $48.53
Preflop ($0.35) (6 Players)
Hero was dealt Q T 9 J
UTG calls $0.25, HJ raises to $1.10, CO folds, BN raises to $3.90, Hero calls $3.80, BB folds, UTG calls $3.65, HJ calls $2.80
UTG is tight-passive nut peddling type 18/2 3b 4, flop cb 100 (65),
HJ aggro pre but not post 30/30 3b 31 flp cb 38 (51),
BN is fishy loose 43/15 3b 6.7 flop cb 67 (48)
maybe 4b pre would be best?
Flop ($15.85) K 5 9 (4 Players)
Hero checks, UTG bets $10.60, HJ folds, BN raises to $25.99, and is all in, Hero folds, UTG calls $15.39
so I flop a pair and inside wrap on a fd board. How would you proceed here, shove the flop?
Turn ($67.83) K 5 9 Q (2 Players)
River ($67.83) K 5 9 Q 3 (2 Players)
Final Pot
UTG has 6 T A 9 UTG wins $65.83
BN had Tc 8c 9h 7h

pre: would fold this utg (too junky/disconnected for oop, would open CO/BN)
flop: question is if villain is capable of bluff-raising paired boards like this. If he is then we should call (and call turn and river too)... if he's never/rarely bluffing he has A6x,96x,99 and we're pretty dead. Vs default zoom 25 reg I would fold

my simulation looks like this (not taking QQ out, you never know):
board: Qs 5h 4c Jh
Hand Equity Wins Ties
6h 7d 8h 9h 41.53% 224,380 2,097
AA:hh,KK:hh,QQ,QJ,KT:hh,KJJT,JJT9,JJ67,AKQ:hh,AKT9,KQT9 58.47% 316,363 2,097

fwiw i would check back turn and try to hit, rather than get shoved on and be forced to call

Comment | bela192 commented on Help playing a flush
when BB donks pot into 3 people I'd think he does this for value/protection with a set or two pair. I'd bet bigger OTT, around 35 BB / $7, and probably b/f river... agree with 5carab

I have a question re: preflop. Does it ever make sense to 4b a hand like this? like try to get the BU out, play HU vs the likely SB AA/KK?

Dec. 13, 2012 | 1:27 p.m.

thank you very much for your reply Phil :)
agree that $5 or $6 gets called by same... I did call the turn raise, river was 5c, he bet half pot. Tbh the only hands that make sense to me here are 2 pair on the flop, so 89, or 99 that missed a c/r. Just such a weird spot to bluff, and for such a small bet on river, begging to be called :/
I guess I should just call river, getting 4:1

So, the BU is pretty TAG, he does 3b quite a bit but this 4b should be AA most of the time (this is PLO25, no one 4bets without AA). I dont know if the shove on the flop is standard, maybe there are better plays?

What do you think of the 4b with rainbow aces in Bu's spot?
