Default Nut Flush + OE Straight Draw Turn Play

PokerStars Pot-Limit Omaha High, $1.00 BB (8 handed) converter

UTG+1 ($33.40)
Hero ($97.50)
MP2 ($58)
CO ($55.45)
Button ($143.85)
SB ($67.35)
BB ($122.40)
UTG ($11.15)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to $3.5</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls $3.50, MP2 calls $3.50, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button calls $3.50, SB calls $3, BB calls $2.50.

Flop: ($21) Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(6 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $7.65 (All-In)</font>, Hero calls $7.65, MP2 folds, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to $24</font>, SB folds, BB calls $24, Hero calls $16.35.

Turn: ($100.65) 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players, 1 all-in)</font>
BB checks, Hero ?

Certainly a case for raising the flop. I wanted to see what the button's action was before I went crazy on reraising.

With no real read on the button on the turn, what do you do?

gotta fold. you have the nut flush, so he is less likely to betting a flush. To raise on the flop he has to have the same hand as you pretty much, so you have to give him credit for the full!

fold. If you were going to call here anyway you should have pushed the flop which is what i would have done here. Even if he has top set you have a chance for extra equity from whatever draw/hand the BB has.

Once the BB calls the button raise, you go all in on the flop. Often whether u push or call in PLO depends on the order of bets...this sequence was ideal.

Yeah, a flop raise would have been the best move and would usually be my first instinct. I'm not sure why I smoothcalled here, but I ended up losing a medium pot when I should've won a huge pot. The button had 6789 with no hearts and the BB had an baby straight draw.
