my biggest leak - hitting topset on a connecting board

[forhasta]

this is my biggest leak in omaha - i generally play full ring. Is there a better way of controlling pot size. I'm probably playing this like crap, thoughts welcome.

Let's say i'm in MP with K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and there are two limpers. I raise pot ??? [overly aggressive?] i like to play my omaha hands HU or 3handed.

Then the flop hits what looks to be a magical

K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

OK - i note I make trips, and that there is no 1 to a flush.

This is where i like to pot, even if i'm betting first. Invariably when I'm faced with a reshove I have to call a big pot. Then they show me something like AJT4 and i'm sent crying home with them making the str8.

So...... thoughts?..... Should i check-call the flop? I lose most money overplaying top-set on semi-connected boards.


Thanks.
