looks ok to me

Re: PLO100 Flopped House, But Dont know how to play it
 

Looks fine, maybe bet 2/3 pot on river. Your opponent had 6xxx and filled up.

Flopping underboats is the easiest way to lose a lot of money in PLO... I tend to play these hands very slowly, but that's just me I guess...

That's about how I would have played it. Happened to me three or four times tonight. (Seriously, I was starting to consider folding unraised BBs with hands like 339T) Maybe even check the river, keep the pot low, hope he makes an underbet so you could call for what you ended up betting?

This is burning money.

Sux...You have the 2nd worst boat and are OOP...I think I C/C the flop and maybe the turn. Let him get to a flush or straight and hope he value bets and you pick him off. If he has 6xxx (almost certain) you keep losses to a min. Wow, am I a total nit?

no not really, if the guy is nitty you have no value on the river (though you should probably fold instead of call).

Re: PLO100 Flopped House, But Dont know how to play it
 

Flop and turn ok.

Against most your river bet is ok. However when you get raised you should fold. Lone 6 or lower FH are not usually river raising here.

Check-calling is ok against some opponents e.g. good players that are capable of making big river-bluffs, that don't bluff often enough so that you could call here or newbies that overvalue rivered bottom FH (that also slow play e.g. 6K here). Basic rule could be that you shouldn't bet, if it would force you to make a crying call here.
