PLO8 - Interesting hand, any advice

[hachkc]

Any advice on how to play this hand:



Here's what I did:

PokerStars Pot-Limit Omaha/8, $1.00 BB (9 handed) converter

MP1 ($29.80)
MP2 ($35)
Hero ($52.15)
CO ($79.80)
Button ($95.50)
SB ($22.45)
BB ($70)
UTG ($93.80)
UTG+1 ($98)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $3.5</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, SB calls $3, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>.

Flop: ($8) 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $7.6</font>, SB folds.

Final Pot: $15.60

Show the hand; it will make people think (probably correctly) that you don't know what you're doing.

I played 3333 exactly the same way once, except that I bet into 4 people on the flop. They all folded and I showed, commenting in the chat box: "goddamnit! I get dealt quads and no action; that really sums up my day." It helped with my image at that table.

As a rule, I never show my hands to so that's what I set my preference to but I wasn't quick enough to change the setting before the cards were mucked.

I can't imagine any other quad hand being playable other than AAAA; buts its all bark and no bite. Would have like to have seen SB cards to see why he called. First time I've ever been dealt AAAA.

I've played AAAx successfully before especially if you are in late position and can pot preflop with a couple of limpers. If the right flop hits, good bluffing hand post flop also. Hard to play if someone calls you pre- and post flop unless its suited to the board or you have a good low/high draw.
