$0.25/$0.50 Pot Limit Omaha Hi
5 Players
Hand Conversion Powered by weaktight.com

Stacks:
UTG ($209)
CO ($52.25)
Hero ($78.10)
SB ($33.15)
BB ($61.20)

Pre-Flop: ($0.75, 5 players) Hero is BTN 8♣ A♠ A♦ 2♦
2 folds, Hero raises to $1.50, SB raises to $3, BB calls $2.50, Hero calls $1.50

Flop: 7♣ 6♦ Q♦ ($9, 3 players)
SB checks, BB bets $8.55, Hero calls $8.55, SB raises to $30, BB goes all-in $58.20, Hero goes all-in $75.10, SB calls $0.15

SB is 70/20 maniac, BB is LAG, goes by the name of Nanonoko :f_frown:

My hand is clearly under-represented when I just call the minraise. Should I ever repop with this aces-with-trash-sidecards hand? I think no.

On the flop, after maniac checks, I expect LAG to bet with his whole range (he does that). I just call, hoping to bring maniac along. He was potting/raising/shoving on the every opportunity he could get, usually with bad equity. After he shoves and LAG reshoves - easy call? Note: their range is really wide, sets are not that likely, I think they could be easily doing this with pair + fd, pair + straight draw, two pair.

First of all you're on the button, this is always a good reason to be aggressive rather than passive. Several things might happen by 3 betting preflop here.
Firstly your opponents might not want to play the hand out of position and fold to the reraise, which is great for us.
Secondly, they might call your 3 bet which means playing the rest of the hand in position so you get to do some pot control if things don't go your way. Also in 6 handed you should be looking to 3 bet preflop from the button at least 10% of the time so this hand would certainly fit in. As AAxx hands make up 2.5% of all the hands you get dealt that means your 3 betting range should be made a quarter of the time by AAxx hands (the rest should be strong KKxx QQxx, double suited wraps and double pairs like QQJJ)
Thirdly, the shortstack in the small blind might 4 bet you allowing you to shove which would be an awesome result.

As it is on the flop, the result you got was perfect, but the method you went about getting it was a little unconventional.

Any situation where you have a nut flush draw in a 3 way pot and all 3 players end up allin means you got good equity from the situation. However on top of this you also had an overpair which will give some additional outs for your hand.

Aces and a nut flush draw in omaha should always be a shove barring some bizarre read and you being super deep, if you have less than 100 bets, given the action preflop, you should never be folding, especially multiway :)

actually in this hand we openraised and got 3bet. given that we can't really pot it to a large enough number (note that we're still quite deep against BB), i would also just call the 3bet. If villain made the 3bet bigger then I think 4betting is better preflop.
