PLO8 quartering

[Kuso]

When Villain called, I fully expected the 3/4 to come my way, but it went the other way. Villain is about +70 PTBB/100 over 500 hands (yes, I checked carefully this time). Comments on how this was played?

When loads of people call preflop like this (i.e. have ALREADY limped), NO-ONE folds for another 2 or 3 BBs. You can make the pot three times as big and keep everyone in the pot preflop by just making a little raise. I do this in LP a lot with most hands I like to play in PLO8, perhaps not enough even. It's a nice play though.

I'm more inclined to limp in EP with this hand because, again, you don't want to fold everyone out and end up playing heads-up, this is a good volume hand.
