Thanks Ray, you make a good point. My hand was really a drawing hand and I should have played it that way. By raising out of position I force myself to try and win the pot after the flop by betting (if I will check-fold after the flop unimproved, then the raise is clearly horrible). Betting though after the flop though means I am essentially risking $23 (if not $95) to win $7. Since no hand in Omaha is that much of a favorite, raising must be wrong.

(Ok, that is a bit of an exaggeration, my AAxx will sometimes make a hand that gets paid off.)
