Alright folks, I'm trying to learn a bit of PLO for fun. I think this is a pretty easy one, but just in case I missed something I figured I'd post it... any thoughts?

Btw, no reads.

fold

fold.....one of em has a str8 the other has the nut flush draw. preflop is fine......but time to bail

fold for sure, but I don't even pot this on the flop. Others might argue, but I chek fold the flop(too many other hands hit this flop better than you).

Ok, yeah, I folded. I considered check/folding, but thought I'd at least try the continuation bet in this passive game.

One villain had two pair the other a straight draw. Oddly enough, my gutshot hit on the turn and I would have won the pot, but I didn't feel like I had nearly enough equity to make the call.

Thanks for the replies,

Jeff

That is why keeping it cheap could allow you to make your hand, IMO. Continuation bets work much less in PLO than in HE, that is my experience at least. Anyone with any draw comes along for the ride, checking at least allows the 4 out draw to come cheaply. Also stack sizes are so small that you(or your opponent) could be all in with a short stack by just raising preflop and potting the flop, he is forced to stay with any draw that the flop brings because of pot odds.
