C-Bet in PLO

A flop bet made by the preflop aggressor — much less automatic in PLO than Hold'em because everyone connects with more flops.

What it means at the table

A c-bet is a continuation bet by the preflop aggressor, usually on the flop.

Why it matters

PLO boards hit callers often, so c-betting works best when your range has nut advantage or strong blocker coverage.

Decision checkpoint

Ask this before money goes in

Table question

Who has more nut hands on this board after preflop action?

Rule of thumb

Wet, connected boards punish automatic c-bets; nut coverage matters more than initiative.

Table example

On J♠ T♦ 8♠, bare aces should not auto-c-bet because callers have many wraps, two pair, sets, and flush draws.

Leak to avoid

Using Hold'em-style automatic c-bets on wet PLO boards where the caller's range connects harder than yours.
