Hero is BB with A icon_suit_spade.gif J icon_suit_heart.gif 4 icon_suit_heart.gif 3 icon_suit_club.gif

UTG+1 limps, 3 callers, SB calls, Hero checks.

Flop: A icon_suit_diamond.gif A icon_suit_heart.gif J icon_suit_diamond.gif

SB checks, Hero?

leads out, right? i check-raised and it worked out, but i kinda hate it.

why not slow play and wake up on the turn?

Overfulls are infinitely different from underfulls, this can be slowplayed. Is there a time for a c/r? Yes, you do it to isolate if you think a late position player will make a bet.

ewww. I don't like slowplaying in PLO at all. Here the CR is fine



edit: whoops, just thought you had trips, so I wouldn't have a problem with getting the pot bigger and making a move on the turn

I would've led out. If anyone has the case Ace, they're definitely calling and they can't put you on anything better than trips either. They may chase a smaller FH.

In my understanding of Omaha, it's better to lead out in this situation. You probably won't get action anyway, unless someone has trips or the lower full house, but if you check-raise, you make it easy for someone to get away from one of these hands, since you are representing such massive strength. Even check-calling would be okay here, but I'd probably lead out and then check the turn.

check/call the flop.

you have a monster, and want people to catch up by making an underfull, or a flush (some may even put money in with a straight if nobody shows any strength). 8)

if the game is aggressive enough and you can easily induce bluffs, i'd say that this is a pot flop, CR turn situation OOP.

if you're not feeling confident that you can induce a bluff on the turn, however, i'd say check/call flop and CR turn.
