$200 PLO8, huge draw, huge action
 

So I normally play $1/2NL but since I was hung over I decided to play one table of PLO8 instead of multitabling my regular game.

I couldn't get any handconverter to work so I've transcribed the action. (PS: Is there any converter out there, that works with Party?)

6-max Party PLO8 200.

Seat 2: Button ( $651.96 )
Seat 3: SB ( $458.58 )
Seat 5: UTG ( $493.48 )
Seat 6: Hero ( $805.21 )
Seat 1: CO ( $83.13 )
Seat 4: BB ( $250.77 )

Hero is MP with 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
UTG folds
Hero raises [$7 USD]
CO folds
Button calls [$7 USD]
SB calls [$6 USD]
BB calls [$5 USD]
FLOP: T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
SB checks
BB checks
Hero bets [$26.60 USD]
Button raises [$106.40 USD]
SB folds
BB calls [$106.40 USD]
Hero ...

Button is the main reason I'm in the game, he's a bad LAG and has blown through at least 5 BIs at this point.

BB's call worries me, he hasn't been out of line and is generally one of the tighter players in the game.

Note stacksizes. Comments on the play so far is appriciated as well.

This can be a call depending on how bad the other players are. I'd probably call, and then regret not having the discipline to fold.

Should be a juicy table, with at least two fish at it!


PS. where is your huge draw?
PPS. why raise with a crappy hand out of position?
PPPS. no offense intended

given the information you gave me, the BB most likly has a set, but i guess u have enough draws to cover that, and he isnt all that deep anyway, the main quesiton is what the fishy button with a deep stack has, i think he is to likly to have you dominated, with something like a big wrap and the nut flush draw. I honestly think your outs are gone, and the BB has a bigger hand then you anyway, however having said all that, the fishy's big juicy stacks might just let me take one card off here, hope to spike the nut straight, or maybe the miricle 9h, and have both pay you off big time.

We're favourite over a set unless the A high flush is out there.

I still call.

Here's a question for you:

1. If the A-high flush is not out there, what hand ranges do you put the two villians on?

2. Given the above hand ranges, how likely is it that the A-high flush is out there?

I'm not raising with this in EP.. I like your hand headsup, you're going to be a fav over almost everything.. but 3 way it really turns into something you're going to be lucky to have 20% equity vs quite a big range of hands.
