PLO Bet sizes on monotone flops
Any good guidelines here?
A friend had a spot with SPR ~6, and a flop of A73 monotone. He was preflop raiser (from say cutoff) and was heads up vs BB.

kinda fun to think about. my guess is that IP/CO player should be betting big here, as BB should have very few AA/KK and Kx-ss here with his flat. AA and strong Kx (which means lots of suited Kx hands) should 3-bet the vast majority of the time vs a CO open.
as such, after OOP checks, IP gets to maintain a range advantage and rep all those hands OTF, giving them carte blanche to apply max pressure. and while i literally don't know how an spr of 6 might influence what a solver may wish to do (compared to say SPR 3), i kinda would be thinking there should be a lot of PSB stuff going on because of BB's distinct range disadvantage.
so i see it as either big bets or just checking back, because in general it's kinda hard to hit monotone flops, and c-bet strategies should be constructed to reflect that. and i see this as a potential exception, because when OOP's range is mostly full of sludge given their non-3b pre, i think IP now regains enough leverage to be able to just bet big, with a range that doesn't necessarily need to include flushes.
btw, take all this from someone who maybe (?) has some ideas about solver concepts in general, hasn't been a PLO main in quite some time, and certainly is NOT someone who has trained extensively with a PLO solver.
