Sort of a newbie question

My general strategy in Omaha/8 is to bet evrything, I rarely slowplay, but it seems this would have been a chance to do so-

$3/$6 Omaha 8 I am in the SB

SB- A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]7 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

I raise and get 3 callers.

Flop- K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Bet or check?

I would bet. If anyone is sitting on two pair or a set, I want to charge them to draw out. Ideally, I will be raised by someone holding another broadway straight and get alot of money in on a freeroll.

P.S. I would not raise that hand from the sb.

I agree. Push it.
Aside from a boat filling up, the worst thing that can happen is you take it down right there...
Make 'em pay!

Oh, and yeah, bad raise...

this hand is easily raised in PLO Hi, not Hi/Lo
but the way you played it, bet

Thanks for the advice, I supect I have not fully transitioned my play from straight omaha to omaha/8 thus the pre-flop raise.

As you may have guessed from my tome I did bet and everyone folded.
