I know I should theoretically 3-bet this hand pre-flop, but I almost never do it out of position in PLO to avoid making my hand too obvious.

I avoid betting or raising across all streets because, in my view, only premium hands would call and those would also bet into me anyways. By check-calling, I give my opponent the chance to bluff. If I raise, though, I’d likely only get called by full houses or quad deuces.

888Poker, Omaha Pot Limit - $0.50/$1.00 - 4 players

UTG: $100.00 (100 bb)
BU: $20.00 (20 bb)
SB: $156.09 (156 bb)
BB (Hero): $139.60 (140 bb)

Pre-Flop:
($1.50) Hero is BB with A A 9 6
UTG raises to $3.50, 2 players fold, Hero calls $2.50

Flop:
($7.50) 2 A K (2 players)
Hero checks, UTG bets $4.95, Hero calls $4.95

Turn:
($17.40) 2 (2 players)
Hero checks, UTG bets $15.40, Hero calls $15.40

River:
($48.20) 9 (2 players)
Hero checks, UTG checks

Total pot: $48.20 (Rake: $2.41)

Showdown:
UTG mucks T T 8 7 (two pair, Tens and Twos)
(Equity - Pre-Flop: 37%, Flop: 2%, Turn: 0%, River: 0%)

BB (Hero) shows A A 9 6 (a full house, Aces full of Twos)
(Equity - Pre-Flop: 63%, Flop: 98%, Turn: 100%, River: 100%)

BB (Hero) wins $45.79

I don't know much about PLO but it seems like your opponent played it really badly, he had basically no equity and should have given up I assume

I don't like the way either of you played...,

at least raise the river????, if he calls great if not oh well,

just giving away value assuming only the nuts would call

Yeah that was kind of my thoughts too, that hero needs to be more aggressive with such a good hand.
