Wasn't sure if I played this hand optimally. Both villains are playing very loose for the game. Villain 1 is 85/31/1.19, Villain 2 67/25/3.25, neither one has 3bet pf so far.

Given that they each...

If you play NLO8, you just have to accept that fact that some people will gamble with complete garbage preflop.

Probably why I avoided NLO8 all together and strictly played PLO8, as I prefer to...

I think you may have played this hand the best possible way, IMHO.

Just feels like one of those situations were you win a little on the turn or potentially lose a lot on river.

I think that...

Villain is playing a pretty loose semi-agro game, stats are 35/16/1.09. He has taken his fair share of pots on the flop with PSB and hasn't really shown down much. He did 4bet utg vs a shortstack...

Could you clarify? Would like to hear some of your thought process on the preflop play

I was trying to buy the button, build a pot, and get rid of the blinds.

New to plo so this may seem standard to a lot of people.

I keep wondering to myself if I missed a lot of value on this flop/hand or is taking down this pot on the flop the best I could really do...

I was about a 70/30 favorite for a scoop, but unfortunately he hit a 5 outer.

At these levels, not much 3betting is done PF, and my specific hand doesn't really warrant a 3bet.

Absolutely right...Can't make a station fold, especially for an enticing proposition as half of a pot.

Feels like calling is just as bad as raising...but a fold also seems wrong.

Villain is a loose passive player with PTO stats 67/6/.55. He "probably" views me as a semi-tight to tight agro player. He plays a lot of pots and willing to play for half a pot a good amount of...

Ok so HU...given you have the blockers, less likely the same hand/freeroll against you. Since you are only flat calling his bet, you look like you might be on a draw as well.

If turn brick, and...

Are we assuming that if we call the Button folds and we are HU vs BB on the turn? I don't like a call sandwiched between 2 opponents even with the current nuts.

Oh...you're right if we're calling 3bets then we are opening, and I would never be opening with trips or quads.

I am new to plo so I am trying to keep myself in "less marginal" situations right...

Haven't played PLO that much, so bit of a novice, but I wanted to see how my thought process was in answering this questions. Feedback, criticisms would be nice if anyone has the time.

Opponents:...

Given the way I potted the river...I think I make a crying call given that it's like 4 to 1 at that point. I suppose my made the pot bet so I wouldn't get bluffed off of the hand.

If I bet 5 or 6...

First time playing with villain, no reads on him/her. Villain did play the first 4 hands immediately after sitting, each time calling a raise regardless of position. Could just be a quick run of good...

Yeah. I ran some simulations of the A45x and other wheel type hands don't actually fare that well against a range of garbage.

I ended up winning 1 of the 2 hands we played together. I actually...

When someone tilts it's usually a good opportunity to make some money, if you don't mind the increase in variance.

This is for fullring games btw. Villain's normal game seems to be a loose almost...

Please stop posting. With each additional post, you make yourself look and sound worse.

I have no reason to believe you have any understanding of the PLO8, or even a grasp of the English...

Your post makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

If you don't know what I mean by hand converter, then maybe you shouldn't be commenting at all.

Salsa thanks for the response.

Yeah, I "rarely" play this hand out of position if there is preflop raising. As the situation was, I just completed out of the SB.

Villain ended up turning over...

Hi, new to the forum and this is my first post, so unfortunately I cannot use the hand converter, so the hand history is in text. Apologies in advance

First time playing with villain, so I do not...
