I found a fellow HPT'er at a plo table so sat down, I'm probably b/c vs him given SPR, but being OOP on a board where I'm unlikely to improve on later streets I decided to c/f being 500bb deep vs villain, input appreciated.

To add, villain is unknown I've only just sat, and I would stack off pre.

I really don't like 3 betting that deep with an AA hand unless you're 3 betting a wide range.  If you're 3 betting range is tight you turn your hand face up in spots like these (especially since you 3 bet oop.)  Also, I don't like 3 betting at all out of the blind.  Being so deep, position is a lot more important than a good hand here and you face playing a hand deep, oop, and probably not knowing where you stand.
As played I like the c/f.  You have little room for improvement and face the prospect of playing a hand out of position.  He'll get to control the action and can probably take the pot with the worst hand if he decides to at a later point.
My PLO experience is limited (I'm still trying to learn the game), but I really think you have to be careful about turning your hand face up preflop if you're deep, building pots oop, etc.  Personally, I'd favor 3 betting a wider range on the button, but not with a good hand in the bb.

There are very few spots where 3-betting in PLO is going to be 100% correct.  AA is almost never one of those few spots.

Correct!!!!

Maybe, and this is only maybe...........if your hand was two suited, then I might consider 3 betting, but probably not.

Good Fold on the Flop. Lots of crap out there to beat you.

Thanks for the comments, this is 2nl btw, so I don't think I would have to be too concerned with someone exploiting my perceived range, which albeit tailored towards v.strong hands, probably isn't so narrow, then again I'm not familiar with the combination's of plo hand strengths or even with what constitutes a great hand if I'm honest.

I wouldn't mark your Aces like that unless you can get pot committed pre-flop and that's just not going to happen 500BB deep.

I'm new to omaha, but why on earth am I saying aces with a 3b, just off the top of my hand, I would 3b, or certainly consider one with...

AK56 ds
KKQTs
76JT ds

okay guess I shouldn't be fist pumping A2A4 type hands in plo hi, but there must be a ton of uber drawy hands that are 3b friendly.
