200 PLO - bottom 2 + open ender, how's my line?

[Peoples Elbow]

Been at table about an hour, UTG seems donkish so far. How's my line, what would you have done? Still getting the hang of this game, how's my bet-size on the turn?

Raise preflop. I never pot into a 6 person field even with oesd.

OP has 2 pair plus OESD, I think it looks fine.

Raise preflop, unless you're looking to limp-reraise. Postflop is standard.

I understand it is 2 pair plus oesd. TTP will call often here. Hero's nut outs are 10 maximum, that is why I am not a big fan of potting flop. In a raised pot with 3 people in it, I dont mind potting flop.

yep yep, raise pre flop. rest of your line looks fine to me.

i pot this on flop because you have so much working for you here........but thats just me. i like to gamble and i think you have a hand to gamble with. also, i like betting pot, espeacially in this situation because you will definately bring out anyone who has buissness on this flop

i think its important to define your hand early to get your reads acurately.

this is why to raise pre flop - you knock out people with Q7xx and maybe even the shortie with QQxx as you kill his implied odds. once you get this v 1-2 people it plays itself, but as you didnt raise is does murky the waters somewhat, although im definatly leading this flop
