PokerStars Pot-Limit Omaha, $0.05 BB (6 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.comSB ($14.25)BB ($21.05)UTG ($5.12)Hero (MP) ($5.20)CO ($3.44)Button ($5)Preflop: Hero is MP with 4 :qh, 6 :club:, 5 :ts, 5 :5c1 fold, Hero bets $0.15, 1 fold, Button raises to $0.52, SB calls $0.50, 1 fold, Hero calls $0.37I think this is about standard. Flop: ($1.61) 3 :3h, 6 :4h, Q :D(3 players)SB checks, Hero bets $1.56, Button raises to $4.48 (All-In), 1 fold, Hero calls $2.92The way villian had been playing I was purely thinking AA/KK and not worried about top set. Is it a good idea to lead the flop here or try for a c/r? Once he pushes, pot odds make this an obvious call?

Not sure why PF is standard. With cards like that you're bound to hit bottom sets and the wrong end of straights. You'll lose a lot more money than you'll win long term playing cards like that for that much money preflop. At the stakes you're playing you don't need to play such marginal starters.

In early-middle position, I'm folding both. I'd probably be willing to play hands like this in late position when I'm more likely to be against 1 or 2 villains, but out of position and/or in a multi-way pot they are the kinds of hands that will lose big pots. Think about the 4567 hand - if you do hit a straight, chances are it won't be the nut straight. In a multi-way pot, especially if there is a raise/reraise, you'll likely be in a bad spot against someone playing JT98 type-hands.

too tight at 6max. in full ring i think you can fold 4567 in ep if you want. dont take my advice on this as golden though.

I'd lead as well. As for the hand selection, it is difficult to win much with these, so I play them in more favourable conditions.
