Live plo5 ~ Preflop kk how to play

Live plo5 ~ Preflop kk how to play

2/2/5 ~ 8 handed ~ mandatory straddle on btn

V ~ opens/calls wide preflop, passive postflop, can get sticky with draws.

H has been 3betting v1 quite a bit.
We just double up very last hand vs villain.

Eff 1800 vs Villain
The rest of table had shorter stacks from 300~1k.

Not sure how the action goes but V is in BB and somehow can open to 30, he might be tilted and he opens wide.
Maybe there was a dead posted blind.
Hero in UTG calls w/AT7KK
We not 3betting this trash right?
like 3~4 callers
Then sb(passive?) limp 3bets to like 230ish with like 500 behind.
V calls(he is calling wide here).
Hero?? fold? 4bet? call?
If we call the rest of table definitely calls. It would super bloated pot multiway. Not sure we want that. 4betting seems a bit crazy?
So folding is best here??
If this was plo4, I had ATKkss I probably 4b in this spot, or 3bet V again.

With the dead money this is an easy 4bet.


Not sure if we have the right odds, we basically only continue with spades, K high flop or a wrap and will be second to act when sb shoves into everyone.

Still, 6 ways for 230 sounds fun. I love flipping and this is a form of it.


I definitely would’ve potted the 30 to try to knock some limpers out. AP SB’s hand is face up, you don’t need to fear a raise behind you, 230 to win about 1330 as is plus maybe 6-700 more, fuggit, let’s gamble.


I ended up folding, they all call.

Flop is like Q62cc.
V donks pot 1200+ putting everyone all in. (maybe V is really tilted??!?)
like 2 callers. Preflop 3bettor tank fold
Eventually river paired and another club came. V mucked(he left immediately after losing this hand, he still had about like 1k left in chips)
1 of the caller had nfd+gutter. something like a553xcc and scoops the pot
