PLO double board bomb pot question
$15, 7-way, $800 eff
Hero has A♠️Q♠️7♥️5♥️ on BTN
Flops ($105): A♣️Q♥️Q♦️ and 8♣️6♣️5♦️
Checks around us..
Are we supposed to bet or trap/check behind here? Ofcourse I’m also cognizant of the fact that someone can still have AA or AQ here and it would suck as hell to get check/raised.

If everyone is bad I would bet big. If most people know what’s going on I would bet 40-50, trying to keep in hands that are big on bottom or possibly free roll the other queen. We can always blast off on later streets.
If someone has AAxx we just go broke or pray to hit the other board but mostly I'm thinking we have a lock on one board and like 20-30% equity on 865.
Betting and getting no callers seems fine, and I don't mind any other number of callers either (vs 1 you usually end up chopping with an outside chance of 3/4 or full scoop if they have a set e.g)
So I'm betting like 1/2 pot +/- depending on the players

So bet50, bet50 and then pot?
You have the effective nuts on one board. If someone has AA, oh well.
Qxxx, big wraps and nut club draws are not going anywhere regardless of what you bet, but I'm choosing an amount that 7xxx and weaker club draws stay in while drawing dead on the board you dominate. At my game, in bomb pots, people look for reasons to stay in if the price is right, so I'd be leading for about $35 or $40 to entice callers. Let's hope some jackwagon with 97xx doesn't checkraise you and blow the field away.
Taking the pot down now is nice, but getting half of a huge bloated pot with five people fully invested is better. And you can still scoop here.
