Re: What do I do and why? $25PLO8
Keep in mind, that what you do on these hands has a lot to do with what level you are playing and the quality and character of opponents.
As for hand 1, I don't assume I can isolate with this hand UTG, or take down anything worthwhile with a pre-flop raise, so I limp, and if it is raised pre-flop behind me, I might re-raise if I think I can get isolated against the raiser, or I might just call. I like to vary my play with AA a lot, so that my raises are less predictable, and so I will get paid off at times when people can't believe I would have AA.
Hand 2, I think you played it correctly to the river, and I simply call on the river because my boat may not be good anymore, and my low isn't worth raising. But no way do I fold either. (This assumes I am playing with knowlegeable opponents, with crappy opponents I might raise.
Hand 3-- I probably don't complete the SB. I check the flop, and possibly call the turn because it is so cheap, but frankly fold is fine too.
