a hand:

River: ($9.37) 2 (2 players, 2 all-in)

Total pot: $9.37 | Rake: $0.45


this guy was running something like 66/4 over maybe 100 hands. with such a low pfr i cannot see him 3betting much except AAxx, and he also seems likely to overvalue it postflop. his flop donk bet took about .00001 of a second. i know he has AA. and the pot will probably be too bloated for him to fold it on the turn. i am getting 2:1 with something like 7:1 implied and 9 outs to the nuts, and 3 outs to a straight which will be beaten only if he has AAQK (not many combos of this considering i have a K). anyway i sucked out. took his 250bb and got berated by the table. obviously they are largely fish at this level (as am i) but they got me questioning whether or not my call was bad from a non results-oriented point of view. it also got me thinking that only 3betting a small value range is worse than smooth calling, as this guys 3betting range seems super exploitable.

anyway - thoughts on the hand, or on 3betting/3betting ranges in plo?

If he had AdXd

on flop:

Player 2 (5 A 2 A): win 58.90% lose 41.10% tie 0.00% EV 0.589


on turn:


Poker Odds-Calculator from FlopTurnRiver.com
Omaha Hi: 100,000 sampled boards containing [ A 7 J 9 ]
Player 1 (9 8 K T): win 60.38% lose 39.62% tie 0.00% EV 0.604
Player 2 (5 A 2 A): win 39.62% lose 60.38% tie 0.00% EV 0.396

Edit: I misread the equities. I think you played it fine on both flop and turn.

About 3-betting range pre, having only AA in that range is quite exploitable.
