PLO8 $400 Another drawing hand

[emptyshell]

With this hand, I think I made a mistake by not reraising allin on the flop. I should have done so to fold out v2 in case he has A2, even though I know I'm going to get called by v1's top set. I'm not sure of this, since most cards that put a low on the board also give me a straight.

My initial hope was to hit my low on the turn and then freeroll the top set guy, but my odds were good enough to push the flop. Does anyone agree/disagree?

I always get as much in on the flop with a wheel wrap. Here for example I'd have raised the first time the action hits you. Don't worry about trapping top set--if it's out there, it's coming along, and the point in the hand you know you're going to be comfortably ahead or at least comfortable risking your stack is on the flop. A completing wheel card on the turn may cripple your action, too.

This is a situation where you have to put all the cash in on the flop because you are in great shape even against top set. I would have pushed all in on the flop because no one will call you if you hit your hand on the turn. I basically agree with wintermute.
