There are 2 ways to play low limit PLO profitably. Semi-loose/passive pre-flop, tight/aggressive post-flop. Or, Semi-tight/aggressive pre-flop, tight/semi-aggressive post-flop.

You either need to raise a lot pre-flop to punish the people trying to see cheap flops with 4489, A335, TT56 type hands and hope they hit a piece of the flop. Or, see cheap flops and lay in the weeds with a lot of hands that can make the nuts but aren't overly strong heads up: like AsKT6. With the latter strategy you are punishing pay off wizards who call with any flush or bitch end straights.

KKxx - meh. 50% of the time I limp, 50% of the time I fold it. It's tough to hit a set, tougher to get it to hold up, and even tougher to get paid off when you're way ahead. The only hand that will pay you off is a smaller set, and we know how rare set over set is.

You seem to overvalue certain hands and undervalue others. AK88 is crap, AQxxds is also crap. If you only raise broadway hands you'll be dead in the water, mix in raises with small wraps like 5678 (especially ds) and As678 hands so you can't be moved off every ragged flop.

When tight players raise you want to be calling with hands like 89TJ especially if they have trouble folding hands post flop.

Against looser raisers I will call with pretty much any hand I would play normally.

Pot control is huge in this game. and like Alex said, too complicated to discuss without forming your thoughts beforehand, we definetly need a thread on this
