this hand is bugging me- i probably played it far too passively but am still finding my way with the live 6 card any how....


The game is a 1 1 6 card omaha in the casino

seat 1 young 'wants to prove i am good enough' gambler with deep pockets ++LAG loses>wins  300 stack
seat 2 local pro regular 6 card player ++ LAG wins++ > Loses  300 stack
seat 3 regular in game well off buienessman steady-> loose( depending on mood) wins > loses 250 stack
seat 4 me suprise suprise deemed to be granite am wel up over my 5  games played  200 stack
seat 5 v rich kid absolute fish has reloaded 5 times in an hour big loser 100 stack
seat 6 steady player- bookie understands the game  probably a slight winner over time 150 satck
seat 7 nice guy talks a good game likes to bluff generally probably loses more than wins 400 stack
 

game has been going about 2 hours and has been faily quiet seats 2 and 3 joined 30 mins ago and want to up stakes seat 2 is raising preflop most hands and getting 3-4 callers seat 1 is starting to do the same. most reraises will get called.  seats 1 2 3 would all happilly get it allin preflop with  marginal hands to fty to trble up ( which is when the game normally escalates)

seat 2 is the dealer seat

I am dealt two spades Two Clubs

utg makes it 5 to go (yes i know it should be 4 but its one of the things they just let go)
I call- should I raise? possibly - it advertises the hand, and will only thin a field a bit- if all. also there is a good chance that it will get reraised in which case I may well reraise again?

anyway that what I do and evryone calls! £35 in the middle flop is

 

it is checked to me, and I have top set with back door fl draw. I was going to pot it but sense that seats 1 and 2 seem very interested in the flop- also both are prone to bet any flop that has seen no action so I check. with this board I feel I should have bet anyway but there are also a lot of scare cards on the turn ( ie any kqt87) which leaves me playing out of position- what am I thinking? As flushie would say do I sleep with the lights on! I will stick with the plan to check raise option- not my fav in any omaha tbh.

everyone checks....

anyway turn brings  three diamonds I still have nuts and a gutshot. I pot it- called in 2 places seat2 and seat 6

river is the  I have the str but am shagged. I check is checked then a 3/4 pot bet from seat 2 which i fold to and is called buy the other guy who tables the  flush which beats seat two spades baby fl( hr also had the wrap for the low str)

so... should I reraise preflop with this hand to then play out of position?
should I have pot bet the flop and then the turn? ( the eventual winner also had up and down on the flop)

you feel others are interested in the flop...so why would you not want to get it all in? You bet out and that gives them a chance to raise/reraise/call etc.

You said you didn't reraise pre-flop so that your hand isn't obvious, and then you don't take advantage of having done that by checking the flop? that doesn't work for me. Lead out and give them a chance to come over the top of you

Raise pre and jam on flop. You can raise more than AAxx. And you say there's a fish or two so they'll always give you action anyway. I hate calling with such a strong hand and then checking.
