2-2 Plo. Hero has $1,070 and both villans cover. Hero is viewed as a tag. Not sure how Hero views Villains, but they are very loose and tend to call light.

Straddled pot, Hero pots in MP with KKxxds and gets 3 callers. Flop is K 3 2 rainbow. Both Villains check, Hero pots $85, and only Villains check call.

6s on the turn, second spade. Hero does not have spades. V1 donks $75. V2 pauses and makes it $300 after 10 to 15 seconds.

Hero has $965 left, action?
 
Again, we are truly hampered by the lack of villain description. Aggression tendencies are perhaps the most important of all the reads for post flop play and we have none. So does the bet and raise mean Hero is a surely behind? I don't know. But I guess prudently we'll need to assume hero needs to boat up to win.

Hero is 1-4 to make a full house. The pot is (that is one hell of a straddle for a 2-2 game ?) $85 + $85x3 + $75 + $300= $715 even assuming V1 calls Hero doesn't have direct odds but the implied odds might make up the difference. If V1 folds, hero is basically hoping to break even if V2 stacks off. If V1 presses the action then Hero is either folding or finds himself drawing 1-4 but paying 1-2.

I hate folding, but I see no choice given the villain read. Two loose sticky (????) guys come out firing can't be good news.

2-5 PLO right?

If it was a single bet, I might call. With a bet and a call, I'd definitely call behind. But with a bet and a raise? folding.
If one or both villains are particularly aggressive/bluffy, I might reconsider, but I'd still lean towards folding.
 
Fold. I'm convinced that I lose more money at flopped PLO sets than all other PLO or NLHE spots combined. Pay careful attention to what these guys show or what the remaining action is but you need to give one of them credit for a garbage straight with their danglers.
 
This was 2-2, with a $5 straddle you can open to $20.

Doc, I like to keep descriptions basic. They are loose stations.
 
Hero shoved. Villain 1 folded and Villain 2 called with JT45. River paired the 3. I too would fold the turn.
