Comments on all streets welcome. Should I be playing medium strength hands like this more aggressively? I figure I'm only getting calls from hands that destroy me.

Fold on the flop. Seriously you have a pair and a non nut draw, you can be confident that since there are a lot of callers, the nut draw and at least two pair is out there.

Ugh. I'm not even sure why you're calling the flop. I know you're getting decent odds, but you only have one real draw, and the Kcxc and the Qcxc are going to have you in bad shape if a club pops off. You could try to bet the turn, but I think you're likely to be destroyed with this many opponents. I say check/fold all the way.

I have no problem with the flop call, you can't always nut peddle in PLO, and there is more going on in this hand then others are saying. I'd bet the turn. If you could give stack sizes/ pot size/limit that would really help as to what the course of action is. I'd bet probably about 60% of the pot on the turn. THe flop peel isn't bad since you can catch a lot of good cards on the turn

Nice hand; well played. The only improvement I see would be to bet your three pair on the river for value.

good luck.

what can you beat with a pot bet and multiple callers? What card am i looking for on the turn? A jack or the Q or K of clubs, and that still doesnt give me confidence with a turn that is potted. if it's just you and the BB i think you can justify calling, but not with many callers.

sluggo i think you forgot the "sw" at the end...or maybe you didnt.

there was a huge piece of info i forgot to mention in the op:
BB is a raging bison. i think he played every single hand and bet every single flop, hence the flop calls from EVERYONE. I was largely unconcerned about him, and saw no strength from anyone else.

In re-reading SS2 PLO section earlier today, I believe Lyle advocates bet/folding that turn (he said something about having to pick up some small pots, and this could be one of them). I personally probably wouldn't have bet it though, but do feel a bet on the river would be worthwhile... :?
