I have been playing PLO for only a week or two, would like some input on how I should play this hand. My guess is that I should be folding off of the check-raise, since T9 is well within his range. I think the call on the flop is bad, but not terrible since if I catch a T, I have the nuts and he still thinks his hand is good. The call on the turn is just bad though, I think. Thank you.

Not only that, but AJ J8 88 QQ is within the range as well. You can eliminate the QQ being as you have the blocker but it's still slightly relevant.

I don't play PLO and I don't know much about it but I think on flop check is better. Ok you have a top pair+gs+two overs, you are on wide ranges, but that board is pretty connected. I don't know if even bet for protection has sense here. Villains could easily have two pairs there, even straights from time to time and there is not much value in betting. As played I would definitely fold vs check/raise on flop.

It is a multi way pot and you only have a pair and a gut shot on a connected board so would check flop back. And def fold to a re-raise from the SB against two people.

check back the flop, u dont want to get c/r coz ur hand isnt that strong but it has showdown value and u wont get 2/3 streets vs anything anyways, as played if i would've gotten to the river with that hand i would shove over his river bet blocking both A and Q for aces and queens full, they dont fold much at micros but if he has any knowledge and if he doesnt have a boat he should mainly be folding, expect when he has JJ and QJ, he should probably fold bottom full house with like 88 or J8 if he hass those too, but K109 seems much more likely to me, i didnt check end result before posting this so this is just what i would do, if you bet that flop you should bet fold, so i suggest just checking it back.
