Playing Omaha8 home game, 10/20. I'm dealt JQKA, unsuited on button. I call unraised pot with 5 players.
Flop: 10-J-K, two tone. Checked to me, I bet with nut straight and full house redraw. Not a super monster flop, but very powerful. One caller - sneaky player.
Turn: 9 offsuit. Tricky player checks, I bet, he checkraises. At this point, I figure he probably has same straight but with a flush redraw. I decide on to call.
River: A, making flush possible.
He fires away, I call, and lose to his king high flush. FYI, he also had a set of 10's and the straight on the turn (king high).
He had a pretty powerful hand as well, and while I was a decent, but not huge, favorite after the flop, I'm wondering whether I should have reraised the turn. I had the nuts, a decent redraw and was getting even money on a 3-1 favorite hand. However, I felt that there was a good chance that he had the same straight (and we'd be splitting) plus I was almost 100% sure that he had a flush draw.
Do you raise/cap it here?
