So I am playing this 2-4 PLO game on PS and the following hand arises:
Seat 1: XCappucinoX1 ($485.70 in chips) Seat 2: pooey ($884 in chips) Seat 3: 8oggo8 ($400 in chips) Seat 4: fzoohtt ($837.20 in chips) Seat 5: lbrahim ($213.95 in chips) Seat 6: bigjwhoa ($410 in chips) XCappucinoX1: posts small blind $2 pooey: posts big blind $4 *** HOLE CARDS *** Dealt to XCappucinoX1 [Tc Ks 8d Ts] 8oggo8: raises $10 to $14 fzoohtt: calls $14 lbrahim: calls $14 bigjwhoa: folds Preflop Raiser is on stone cold tilt, so i can call a raise from him with almost anything so i decide to see a flop here. XCappucinoX1: calls $12 pooey: calls $10 *** FLOP *** [Qs 6d Td] XCappucinoX1: checks pooey: bets $40 8oggo8: calls $40 fzoohtt: raises $187 to $227 lbrahim: folds I would like to hear your opinions on what I should do here.

So you have no read on the flop raiser at all? If that's the case, I'd just shove. He's not going to need a lot to come over the top of the weak lead. I think 66 and QT are going to be in most players' ranges here and you'll see a draw fairly frequently too.

yeah plus backdoor spades are obv. coming.
There are times in my life when I've laid this down, though. There is a group of players that will only c/r with a set, and they're a good group to ID. Although if you don't push, you won't have the potential thrill of spiking a one-outer. |

Re: Sick Situation in 2-4 PLO game on Stars
I think its important to note that the bettor and the raiser are both 2BI+ deep making it less likely the raiser has anything but the most premium drawing hand or QQ. I still probably push here without a read, but you are not giving up a ton of equity by folding.
I know it is unorthodox, but what about just calling? If we put the raiser on big draw or QQ+ it would be clever to give the other players the odds to come in with a draw since if you are good against the raiser the other to players are likely to be blocking each other from hitting there flush or straight draws. I guess I would be pushing most turns if I cold-called on the flop. If I were to call the flop then both players got all 840 in behind me I may vomit and fold. I am probably way out there with this, so tell me why I am wrong. |

Looking at the hand again, if you know you are against a mid-stakes stars regular I think it is a good fold.

Re: Sick Situation in 2-4 PLO game on Stars
So I decided to fold thinking that with 3 ppl in this pot I am going to either be against top set, top two, bottom set, or one or multiple straight draw flush draw hands. I didn't feel like it was worth putting in the money here because if I happen to be against QQ then i am drawing virtually dead and if I am against straight draw flush draw hands, then I am also not much of a favorite. I didn't even think long about this....for some reason it just seemed to be an easy clear fold but then after looking back at the hand history I had second thoughts about how "easy" of a fold it really should have been.
XCappucinoX1: folds pooey: calls $187 8oggo8: calls $187 *** TURN *** [Qs 6d Td] [5s] pooey: checks 8oggo8: bets $159 and is all-in fzoohtt: raises $437.20 to $596.20 and is all-in pooey said, "i have set of queens and still gonna get outdrawn" pooey: calls $596.20 *** RIVER *** [Qs 6d Td 5s] [2d] *** SHOW DOWN *** pooey: shows [4h Qc Qh Ah] (three of a kind, Queens) fzoohtt: shows [Kd 9d 8c Jc] (a flush, King high) fzoohtt collected $874.40 from side pot 8oggo8: mucks hand fzoohtt collected $1225 from main pot *** SUMMARY *** Total pot $2102.40 Main pot $1225. Side pot $874.40. | Rake $3 Board [Qs 6d Td 5s 2d] Seat 1: XCappucinoX1 (small blind) folded on the Flop Seat 2: pooey (big blind) showed [4h Qc Qh Ah] and lost with three of a kind, Queens Seat 3: 8oggo8 mucked [Kh As Jd 6h] Seat 4: fzoohtt showed [Kd 9d 8c Jc] and won ($2099.40) with a flush, King high Seat 5: lbrahim folded on the Flop Seat 6: bigjwhoa (button) folded before Flop (didn't bet) |

Against an unknown I'd shove but there is a lot of players on stars against which I'd fold.
PS: Stars' regulars at mid stakes are generally tighter than what I see on FT or UB (not that many games run there). I just play Stars because the UI lets me play a lot of tables at once. |
