PokerStars - $0.05 PL Hi FAST (6 max) - Omaha Hi - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

BTN: 224 BB
Hero (SB): 110.4 BB
BB: 428.8 BB
UTG: 79.6 BB
MP: 322.8 BB
CO: 293.8 BB

Hero posts SB 0.4 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.4 BB) Hero has J♦ 3♣ K♦ K♥

fold, fold, fold, BTN raises to 3.4 BB, Hero calls 3 BB, fold

Flop: (7.8 BB, 2 players) 3♠ 5♦ 3♦
Hero checks, BTN bets 7.4 BB, Hero raises to 23.6 BB, fold

Spoiler

Hero wins 21.8 BB

Is it strong enough to raise/4bet or should I be afraid of full house and play passiv at least on flop?
I like raise, but lower sizing. What sizing would you choose?

Thank you

Preflop I would either fold or 3-bet. I don't like calling from SB as you are playing the whole hand OOP and in PLO position is even more important than in Holdem. As a beginner you do nothing wrong with folding here imo. Problem with this hand is, that you are dominated very often if opponents flops an Ace and the 3♣: is very disconnected from the rest of your hand. As a beginner you do nothing wrong here with just folding this hand.

Postflop pot is okay. :f_thumbsup:

To practice preflop have a look at the following article by Kyyberi.
