Top 5 of a $20 PLO8 game on Stars. About 180 players, so payouts are pretty much identical to the $20 180-person NLHE games.

Is this a ridiculous hand to go with, or is it plenty good to push with my short stack?

Sorry, no converter for PLO8 mtts.

And another question - a little earlier at the final table I folded AAAQ in late position with limpers in front of me. Is that ridiculous, or standard? I believe all the limpers (there were 1 or 2) had me covered, but I was not the table short stack.

Thanks in advance for any responses. Maybe I shoulda put this in the O8 forum, but it was a tournament and really not similar at all to a situation that would come up in a ring game.

re the AAAQ hand, i'm potting pre without question. it's just extremely unlikely that someone else will have a hand that's strong enough to call, since you hold 3 of the magic cards in this game. and along with that, i would rather wait to push with a hand that contains an ace as opposed to 2446.

Thanks.

The AAAQ hand was actually much earlier, and my stack fluctuated up and down a few times between that hand and the other hand. So it wasn't like i folded AAAQ to push 4462 8 hands later.
