Forgot to grab the hand history but since I don't play a lot of PLO I figured I would post this. MTT, 25/50, all 3 players involved in hand have around same stack which is about even with starting stack. Hero has A/K/J/10 rainbow and limps on the button SB call, BB check. Flop A/Q/10 rainbow. SB bets pot, BB raises pot leaving button with the nuts and a bit more than the raise in front of him. It's early but obviously I put at least one of them on a set and the other on probably 90% the same hand as mine (w/slight chance of also having a set). Action?

1 -- raise pre-flop...

2 -- i'd shovel it in here...you have the nuts and with no flush draw on the board you should be getting it in here.

hopefully 1 just has a set and the other maybe AQ or something like that...obviously you could be chopping with someone else...but i'd still get it in here.

Yeah, you have to get it in here.

Normally, but I've found that overall very early on it is -EV to do this in a low buyin PLO tourney unless there are multiple limpers and even then you might just get 6 callers limping the pot raise anyhoo. Early on I'd like to see if I could flop something big against a max of 2 players without committing a bunch of chips when 4/4/7/10, etc are coming anyways.





That I did, SB had QQ and a low backdoor spade draw, BB had same KJ. Runner/Runner spade knocked us both out....I was just curious if I was pretty sure I was at best chopping the set's money if it was still the right move to get it in mathematically or whatever.
