Hi, question for PLO jedis... on a table where multiple opponenets are seeing every flop, broadway hands hold less 'freeroll big-play' stacking potential... especially in a cash game where rake killd you when broadway only splits & is not outdrawn by set/2-pair boating up... therefore broadway wrap hands that look so pretty become 'win small, lose big' hands to not get giddy with preflop espeially, eg. KKQ/Jx, KQJ10. AKJQ - last one especially limited - agree ??

whether these hands are double suited or not sways me a little but not much, in multiway games, hitting a flush wins u nothing unless u get vs a set to sweat if u play a nut flush cute, omaha a game of low straights... eg 8766 on a 456 flop or 9875 on 346 flop either bust aces or freeroll a weaker nuts with redraws (ok flushes uselful for this bit !!! why do people play these big broadway hands like they are the 'nuts' is crazy in pot limit, implied odds blown with a high flop as i desribed in above post.... how i play now anyway, especially against the now prevalent ring PLO 'every-hand' pf raise, CB flop aggros, hope some find this useful or agree, shalomski, keenberg

There certainly does seem to be a tendency for continuous pre-flop and cont bet aggression esp at PLO50/100.

Thing is I see guys like LJ_Elson and JakeDixon continuously winning big with this style. They appear happy to get it all-in w less than nut draws yet continuously win. Saw one of them get it all in pre w A8cKQh and flop the str8.

Is it +EV to play these hands that way? Was pretty obvious they were up against AA?? in that instance mind.

Thoughts please

yes for sure it is +EV overall to play every hand this way, however quite easy style to take chips off too - interesting everyone coming around to the 99%VPIP FT Finnish style... certainly makes for exciting game & big pots !
