Played this Hand in Miami. It is played with a Rock/Straddle (5$). The player who won the last Hand, has to straddle to 5$. Preflop action starts to the left from the Straddle.
MP - Loose Semireg (1000)
CO - Hero (1000) mit A♥:9♥:8♣:6♦:
BU - Aggrofish (300)
Preflop:
Rock in BB, MP raise 20, Hero call, BU call, Rock call
Flop: Q♥:5♥:4♣: (80)
BB check, MP check, Hero check, BU bet 50, MP call, Hero raise 280, BU all-in 300, MP fold
Preflop:
I think this is pretty Standard. In loose live games we want to play multiway pots with this hand.
Flop
SPR is 3.5 against MP and SPR is 12 against MP.
I checked because BU was aggressiv and I thought he would stab a lot. Against a wide range I can x/r with a lot of FE. If he checks back, it is also good for me because I have 11 Nutouts or can improve to a pair along with my draw.
Now MP calls the bet and I also think, he is very weak. In PLO-Live-Games people often fastplay their stronghands, so he would bet the flop or x/r against BU. This is why I decided to x/r, because I thought I have a lot of FE against both players and if we get it in, I will always have 35-40%.
Now someone mentioned, that he would always just call the bet on the flop, because MP probably has a weak draw and we have implied Odds, because we are in Position. I checked a similar spot (Ks6s5d, MP vs CO vs BU) in the PLO-Trainer and there, the NFD + Gutshot is just a call. With a slightly better hand (+ BDFD, Pair, OESD) the solver wants to bet-call or check-raise.
I still prefer the x/r, because I think BU stabs more than Solver (40%), so we have more FE.
In the Solver MP x/c with Sets (KK 34%, 66 90%, 55 100%) and I think this is not true in reality. MP often bets the flop with Sets oder is x/r.
This is why I still like my play more then x/c on the flop, because I have a lot more FE than in the solver and MP rarely is trapping with Sets.
Any other opinions?
