I play very little PLO and likely am quite bad.

Is this standard here? I have the third nuts. No reads.

$0.25/$0.5 Pot Limit Omaha Hi
5 players
Converted at weaktight.com

Stacks:
UTG Acronuts ($52.85)
CO 5outsNOdoubts ($42.45)
BTN YAKUDZZA ($69.50)
SB Hero ($50.65)
BB rankki ($50.00)

Pre-flop: ($0.75, 5 players) Hero is SB
1 fold, 5outsNOdoubts calls $0.50, 1 fold, Hero calls $0.25, rankki checks

Flop: ($1.50, 3 players)
Hero bets $1.50, rankki raises to $3, 5outsNOdoubts folds, Hero raises to $10.50, rankki raises to $18, Hero goes all-in $50.15, rankki goes all-in $31.50

when he - 1, 2, 3, 4... 4 bets you, you should always have something to worry about unless you have the complete nuts. Unless he is a reckless player, that should be folded in my oppinion. Although it would be one of the best laydowns I've ever made.

Yeah I think I need to fold this unless I know the guy is retarded. Best case scenario, he has 10 outs, worst I am drawing completely dead.

fold pre flop!! Would you limp from the BU here? Don't do that either

As played you have to felt, I doubt he does this with J5 and I'm sure he doesn't with JJ.

If you don't want to put all the money in don't bet the flop, the whole point of betting the flop is to try and stack a J before he boats up or gets scared off. If you don't think that will happen look to c/c instead.

PF is ridiculously bad

flop is close, I disagree w/ Doc that he wouldn't play J5xx this way, but I agree he wouldn't play JJxx this way

I said I doubt, I agree it's a possible holding. I think he shoves Jxxx more or less always since his kickers are pretty much always live. but J5 less than than 50% ish. And it's kinda a weird read that he's tight enough not to felt a bare J here but isn't tight enough to fold a (most) hand with J5 in it pre

He's also open limping from the CO which knowing not much else would also make me want to gamble with him

Yeah not sure why I limped behind. I am retarded at PLO and wanna see way too many flops cuz its a lower stake (im aware this is dumb) and I think this can be a fold on the flop.
