I just saw a prime example of this and it reinforced the gravity of the situation. It is, getting freerolled on. For instance, you flop a fair hand with no redraws. Say you hold AsAdKcQd and the flop comes 9h Jh Td. You like this flop OK, right? However, there are a lot of ways for this hand to go bad. If there is a large bet and a call or raise to you, I say think about tossing it.
Am I crazy here?
My worry is that you are quite probably against the exact same straight AND that other bettors could have a redraw that is going to scoop you. The pot is relatively small at this point so why take the risk?
When I am playing PLO8, I am looking for opportunities to do the freerolling and avoiding giving others the chance. A side benefit of this is that the other players see me fold to large bets often and it gets them all excited when I am in a pot. Nothing better than having a nut-nut hand and having some chucklehead bet it for you.
