Default PLO8 - Scoop draw on Flop/Turn, worth your stack?

Assume: PLO8 ~$25

Under what conditions is it generally correct to push scoop draws?

For example:

On the Flop you have: A234 AND Asss (or top set); you raise and get RR AI

On the Turn you have: A234 AND Asss (or top set); you raise and get RR AI

I am interested also on exactly what changes (if at all) due to # of opponents,
stack sizes, reads, tendencies, etc.

Thanks

Great...I'm THAT guy!

I guess this was a stupid question and the answer is "always".

If I ask when NOT to push could I get a reply?

i could tell you when not to push. but if you have a strong scoop draw on the flop, always push. like NFD and NLD....always get it in (unless board is paired).

Ace suited...suited... (four cards to nut flush).

The question is, when you have both nut draws is it correct to
push every time: A.) on the flop - and/or B.) on the turn.

Sorry for the ambiguity, I'm an asss!

Yeah...

I have been pushing all my situations like this:

A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] on a board of:

K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

and :

K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] on a board of

K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

I don't want to be results oriented, so I am asking if experienced
PLO8 players here (consider lower buy-ins) always get it AI
in these situations (even if HU).

I really appreciate any help.

the first hand is the stuff of plo8 wet dreams. the second hand is good, but there could be a case for not getting it all in (e.g., sometimes you can guess that there's a good chance someone has AAxx perhaps with a diamond draw).
