I've been playing 6-max PLO, mainly at Full Tilt, and enjoying decent success so far (the downswing must be on it's way!). Most of the success obviously comes from giving away less money with crap / marginal hands on the flop.
This hand came up yesterday and I wondered how others would play it. Normally I wouldn't give a 2nd thought and I'd just muck it, but I did make a straight on the end which could beat a flopped set. Obviously he could also have the flush and have gone for a turn check-raise. Anyone play this differently? Opponent is 69/7/0.6 so loose pre-flop and passive. I'll just add that at FT this half pot button confuses the hell out of me - but i'm sure it's going to be a good tell when I work out who uses it for value on great hands and who uses it as a cheap bluff!!!
