This is correct. This is exactly why it IS bad to 3bet to 10% of our stack with even a good AAxx in PLO. Your opponents are the ones that have the initiative to choose to commit to a low flop. They can do this either for value or as a bluff/semi bluff to get us off our overpair. Sometimes they will have poor equity, and make us fold anyways. Because of stack sizes, rarely will they fold for one last bet when ahead (equity-wise).

Reverse implied odds are a bitch, and putting 10% of our stack in is about the worst way to play AAxx preflop.
Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.
