Raise or call this straight PLO25
No reads so far.
What would you do? (besides raising preflop) Poker Stars Pot Limit Omaha Ring game Blinds: $0.10/$0.25 6 players Converter Stack sizes: hero: $26.50 UTG+1: $16.25 CO: $19.40 Button: $12.30 SB: $17.20 BB: $21.45 Pre-flop: (6 players) hero is UTG with T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] hero calls, UTG+1 calls, <font color="#cc0000">CO raises to $1.35</font>, 2 folds, BB calls, hero calls, UTG+1 calls. Flop: 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ($5.5, 4 players) <font color="#cc0000">BB bets $5.25</font>, <font color="#cc0000">HERO??? Is raising pot the right move? Thanks |

Re: Raise or call this straight PLO25
Raising with the nuts can never be a mistake.

Re: Raise or call this straight PLO25
i think iīd rather give him some rope. you have the nuts, blockers to a higher str8 and two backdoor flush draws while villain prob has an overpair. there arenīt too many cards to be scared of plus heīll fire again on the turn for sure.

Re: Raise or call this straight PLO25
calling was my first intention (for the reasons u mentioned).
Then I decided to raise. I never slowplay anything less than quads in PLO. Do you think a set (esp. top set) will ever fold to a PSR? Let's turn it around: would you call here if you had top set hoping to fill up? |

Re: Raise or call this straight PLO25
just call. you're not freerolling anything at this stage, so all you stand to do by raising is get more money into the pot against a very small selection of hands that are freerolling you, fold out hands you have drawing dead, and charge sets to draw out on you in somewhat of a reverse implied odds situation. By just calling here you can find a freeroll with half the deck on the turn and when he pots and you go all-in he might even feel committed with a hand like T98x/lower straights.

@Grinch
I smooth call here. You have the nuts, blockers to higher straight and 2 backdoors. I'd waiting for the turn to raise pot. |
