I Might be Wrong...

...and I probably am, but here's a couple of Omaha hands to discuss where I could (should?) have raised for value on the river.

Warning: Looking back, this one is pretty ugly from the turn onwards. (HI LO)

Party Poker
Pot Limit Omaha Ring game
Blinds: $2/$4
6 players

Stack sizes:
UTG: $532.89
UTG+1: $179.92
CO: $515.48
Button: $356.46
MackemPlus1: $568.76
BB: $400

Pre-flop: (6 players) MackemPlus1 is SB with qs as qd 5h
UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, 2 folds, MackemPlus1 calls, BB checks.

Not a bad hand to raise with but, from the SB, I prefer to just check as my A5 low draw isn't really strong enough.

Flop: ts 2c 4d ($12, 3 players)
MackemPlus1 bets $9.4, BB folds, UTG+1 calls.

Good flop, any bare A2 lurking is buggered and I have my QQ overpair. Easy bet.

Turn: 6c ($30.8, 2 players)
MackemPlus1 checks, UTG+1 checks.

In two minds about this check. At first I thought it was pretty weak but OTOH, I have to put him on a low draw to have called the flop bet.

River: Qh ($30.8, 2 players)
MackemPlus1 checks, UTG+1 bets $20, MackemPlus1 calls.

Results:
Final pot: $70.8

Nice river card, but if villain has A3 for the nut low I still only get half. Not sure why I check-called though, pretty gay yes?

This one is hi only and I river the second nut flush, only for BB to spring to life.

Raise the river????
