I just recently started learning & playing PLO. I'm playing micro-stakes online now as my first stepping stool of the learning curve (2/5).
I've done alright my first couple sessions, but have gotten myself in trouble with bottom set a couple of times.
I know in NLHE set-on-set is generally a go-broke cooler situation, but I am wondering if I am overplaying my bottom-set hands in PLO. If it's 3-bet on the flop (in a deep game), is it usually a good idea to chuck the bottom set?
Here are a couple of hands which got me in trouble (also, note that I have a pretty aggressive image when I play, so people tend to give me more action than they should in a lot of situations):
