Sorry I can never get converters to get the action right but here's the hand.
Anyways, I don't know if I should have done this or not. I am learning PLO so break it down for me. At the time I just saw that I had a lot of outs vs a tight preflop raiser.
Reading the HH again, I think I shouldn't have done this because I don't have as many outs as I thought i did at the time plus dirty outs. |

I haven't tried this converter much, but seems good:

I haven't played much 50PLO. If it's a good read and you can put him on AAxx it's fine because you're getting odds. If he has any extra draws it's not that great, but not that bad.
Donk betting is pretty standard, you will get cold-calls from lots of hands that are barely ahead of you (thinking you have a set). |

I think bet-fold is the right action on that flop. If you flopped the smart (ie, not the idiot) end of the straight draw with your weak flush draw, then I would play it as you did.
But once this tight preflop raisor pops you hard on that flop, you're either a small favorite (against dry aces) or a huge dog if he holds a higher flush draw and any 2 other cards. I'd bet that he has AA+nut flush draw here quite often. |

got a read?
if not, this is a routine fold.
I'd say he's beating you pretty handily. you can't be doing well against a NFD. Against bare AA you're 55-45 most of the time. Against most of the big card combinations you're not doing good. And if he's raising a tight range then expect to see AAxx of course but also stuff like AKQJ, AQJJ, QJT9, QJTT etc. and you're getting crushed against most of that. Can you really put him on AAxx with no clubs?
Even against a loose cannon I think you have to fold most times |
