Is this standard play?
I was watching some Omaha cash games online and I stumbled on a very awesome hand:

The hand begins 29:30
I have never seen that play on turn. Is it standard? Against what type of Villains this play would be the most efficient?

Out of the ~8 decisions made by those players in that handmaybe ~2-3 of them were reasonable
Would be a cool bluff if he wasn’t the 3bettor. He doesn’t rep that board very well. If I remember correctly, Doug Polk did the same thing vs Antonius on a 7545 board with 74 in a NLHE cash game.
That said he has equity when called and can make lots of better hands fold, but he would get snapped off by trips or better. Just lucky to find villain’s bottom of range.

Searched it up on Youtube and indeed, Doug Polk made this play, but Antonius called pretty much hero called him down with a straight.
I believe that is a really good play in Omaha against conservative players though. It is really hard to call that all in raise with naked three of a kind or straight imo. I would fold both at least Oo
