The Guy went absolutely bananas at me for doing this, i think i had a fairly reasonable chance with top Set and him reraising me all in.

Anyone feel i shouldnt have played it like this?

Jam jam jam jam the flop. The only way you're an underdog here is if he has a monster draw such as  8h 9h Td Kd

Personally, i think your pre flop raise was a bit loose (just personally, maybe i'm too tight) but i cant see how anyone can criticise your flop play?!?! You have top set. If the board pairs, you have almost definitely got a lock on the hand.

Aye pl omaha i tend to play a bit loose but half of it is to do with table as you seen 5 callers so ur getting an avg 30$+ pots on flop on a 1/2 level.

No hand can be ahead of you on the flop, you have the near nuts, of course you were correct to call!

How on Earth can he possibly critise you?

Of course, you are not the favourite versus a kick ass draw, but after you've bet $50 (which you are entitled to do with top set), you have pot odds to call the raise, even if you do put him on the moster draw (which in itself is too difficult to do with enough conviction to justify a fold)

The only suspect part of the hand was your preflop raise. All you have is a pair of pocket queens, which aren't worth much in Omaha. True, you are double suited, but no-one's going to pay a queen high flush off, and there's a chance you'll do all your money to an Ace/King flush if you become too attached to the hand.

Basically, you're relying on flopping a set and not getting outdrawn, which doesn't really justify the $12 prelop raise.

Horrible raise pre flop, even if you think you are a good lag player you shouldn't be raising this trash. Huge losing play.

On the flop its pretty straightfoward like evreryone has said.

As people have said, you definetly made the correct move and then call on the flop because you had the top set, and on this board, th enuts. You can't have been an underdog.

Personally, im not too sure about your raise pre flop. Your raising $12, just to hit a set of Queens.

Agree with James again!! OMG!!!!!!! I need to see a doctor!!

Preflop raise - horrible!
Post flop - ship it in as you have done
