Pot-Limit Omaha, 3-Betting

If you play No Limit Holdem you probably know something about 3-betting light, a semi-bluff pre-flop to try and steal the pot from a pre-flop raiser. In pot limit omaha, 3-betting as bluff is much more rare, because it is not very efficient. Since the game is pot-limit, most of the time the pre-flop raiser (pfr) will have odds (or be close to it) to call your re-raises. This is even more frequent in pots where some people will act after your 3-bet.
Because of this, you should avoid three-bets as a bluff most of the time, and use this weapon for value when you have a decent hand. If you have position, 3-bets and get called, you may have a chance to steal the pot when you hit the flop strongly or partially. You can even try to bluff the pfr out of the hand if he checks to you on the flop. It will depend not only on how you hit the flop, but your reading about the opponent, of course.
