PLO 25 AA94ss

I'll take a swing at this.
See if skovid agrees.

Preflop: call and preserve implied odds..
The reasoning is: You have one suit and thats pretty much it. The four does help abit but not much.
I would like this more if you are in position, because then you have more room to maneuver postflop.

Another argument for not 3beting trashy aces OOP: If villian is defending top50% of is range versus trashy aces, AA72 in this example (which isn't far off from your hand).
Villian will on average make a profit of 7.5 bb without even knowing it. And when he calls the 3bet he will make a profit of 11bb.

On the flop: SPR ~7
I think it's close between folding and calling. It's an unknown and he's putting you on aces most of the times and usually shipping light.
Due to the high spr i think it's a fold, i don't think you are on the above the ~47% often enough.

With that beeing said:
Everything could have been avoided by calling preflop, keeping the spr high and keep the implied odds.

Who's skovid? ♦

You missread 2 important things about the hand. First of all, hero did not 3bet, but isolated 2 limpers which is definetly fine. 2nd of all, he has position, so your statement that he's 3betting trashy AAxx oop doesn't make sense here ♦.

So there's no reason villain would put hero on AAxx here. His raise here is strong. It's a good spot to bluff raise just because hero has to fold a lot of his range here, but i doubt villain was planning that here, and imo it's J6xx+ here every single time.

Good fold.

Typical.

Missread the hand completly.
Came to the right conclusion though, which is a +.

On that note: Nice fold!
