    Default PLO multi-entry: try blocker semi-bluff?

    Seems like the type of hand where I have to abuse having the button. This is a $3 multi-entry tourney; pretty sure no one is going to slowplay trips on the flop and boats have to raise the turn. We block the nut straight, seems pretty hard for 65 to continue here.

    I guess we can call since we have clubs but it puts us in weird position on a lot of rivers...

    give up for sure, i could see doing something with the A high FD maybe. The fact you block the straights seems bad to me, you're like it if people had straights.

    with no read making these assumptions

    pretty sure no one is going to slowplay trips on the flop and boats have to raise the turn.
    is off because first

    This is a $3 multi-entry tourney
    and also because checking lots of 7s is a standard play here, esp lower 7s.

    every river regardless of suit puts you in a bad spot, for sure calling is worse than raising.
