10/20PLO HU flop CR decision

[fitnessfreak]

I decided to venture into a 10 handed 10/20PLO game on Party Poker today. Kinda stupid coz im usually a 2/4 NLH grinder, and i very rarely play PLO, but i have been practicing a lot recently, and 10/20 was the only game above 1/2 so i just played the 1 table.

im fairly new to the table and have been playing tight. villian has been on the loose side but i havent seen him do anything too crazy yet.

Preflop fold, Postflop fold.

Preflop is fine and very standard.

You clearly have no fold equity so you need to figure out what kind of range he can make this flop raise with. I have played with Soney a little bit, and while he can go mental when he raises preflop, generally he plays relatively tight postflop. Any hands I have on him at 3/6 or higher he played pretty scared postflop so I would expect he would just call with a big draw.

Against a random opponent, you should probably stack off some of the time on these kinds of flops but I mostly go with my gut in these kinds of situations. On a rainbow flop it should be a pretty quick fold.

yeah i like the PFR with this type of hand, i will raise much worse than this from the CO. post flop is a pretty straightforward fold, i think you are going to be drawing 6 outs at very best

[Ansky]

seems like an easy fold. don't really know waht you can hope for if you continue here.

[autobet]

Preflop near cut off, and continuation bet with 3 pair heads up is standard.

One difference as you move up, you will find more players putting pressure on the preflop raiser on these type of boards with more marginal hands than the typical 2-4 player.

Against an unknown you can't be too wrong by folding, but will be in bad shape when they have any of the hands they are representing. I would tend to fold early on in a session against unknowns, but if I see someone putting a lot of pressure on the flop then I would tend to stack off if the money was not too deep <100BB.
