PLO 1/2 party

4 limpers, i limp with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], button limps, blinds call

flop ($16) (8 players): T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

check, check, check, MP (200) bets $16, LP (200) raises pot, Hero (200) ???

push, or call? or is this a fold?? wtf

Re: double check standard??
 

Push and pray

Re: double check standard??
 

What does pushing accomplish other than getting all in vs TT

Also you are crushed by something like JT97

when the guy makes it $64 on the flop, he's going to call most of the time, the other player in the hand took the most aggressive action possible in a multi way pot with players behind him to act

if you have no fold equity this is probably pretty close to EV neutral

Which would be ok.

Especially if foe #2 has 88xx.

Although foe #2 may have a draw instead, which is less ok.

Re: double check standard??
 

The guy with TT and/or 88 is likely to have your straight outs strangled worse than that. Something like JTT7 is a lot more likely that TT55.

Re: double check standard??
 

with the $ in the pot folding is a mistake.

Enjoy the variance.

It's an unraised pot--those two tens can be accompanied by literally any two cards and you should treat that as such.

JT79? The odds of this are so freaking unlikely I'm not worried at all about that. If you're constantly worrying about hands like that you are missing some value in your game.

Re: double check standard??
 

Fair point, I shouldn't pick such trash side cards. Here's one that makes foes' hands much more attractive pre-flop and gobbles up tons of hero's outs.

7c 6c 8d 8h 119 17.87 547 82.13 0 0.00 0.179

Much less rosy but still +EV 3-way.

Re: double check standard??
 

Why is this +EV 3-ways - or am I missing something?
Win: 27.63%

Re: double check standard??
 

Humor me for a second and assume he has something like TT76. It cannot possibly be unreasonable to assume that sort of holding is an "average top set" for him to have. Giving him TT55 is much too optimistic.

Assuming it goes, fold and then you get all in vs LP (by far the most likely scenario), you are -EV to get all in there even with the dead money in the middle.

Re: double check standard??
 

Parlay Slow, I conceded that TT55 is towards the low end of TTxx holdings and substituted a powerful JTT9 hand (better than TT76 as well) in the simulation above. Hero still has 36.6% EV 3-way.

youdidwhat, note that hero also ties 18.02% of the time.
