Default Re: PLO8 Noob Question

I would jam away with that hand. You have eighteen cards that will improve your hand to a straight or better, nine of which will also make you a nut-low. You have five more cards that will make you a nut-low + a pair. Not all of your outs are nut outs, but this is still a huge draw. There are so many good things that can happen if you bet -- everyone could fold, and you win a nice little pot; you can catch a scoop or 3/4 card on the river and get action; you could take the pot on the river with a bluff set up by this turn bet; you can get raised as a probable PE favorite, etc. -- that betting clearly is the best play IMO.
