Being OOP sucks in PLO and that hand will get you in all sorts of trouble. It'll make good hands such as straights, flushes, sets, full houses etc but they'll never be profitable in the long run, especially OOP.
You'll usually be drawing to the lower end of a straight or a bad flush or the lower full house. It's an easy way to loose a massive pot, and you won't gain too much when you do win.

IMO just fold pre.

edit: playing 10Nl you must be a pretty competant player, wasn't trying to patronise or anything with basic advice. It might help people reading the thread new to PLO.
