Default PLO .20 Make the Low End Straight - Bet or Call?

Loose passive table (as you can see from this hand)

UTG+1 leads the betting but everyone calls giving me good enough (well almost good enough lol)odds to call behind

Make my straight on the river but should I bet, check/call or check/raise?

I hate betting the non-nut straight and often check/call

Am I missing out on value?

I bet/ call here. Really hard to see anyone with 36xx type hand getting past the flop here.

FWIW I play a fair bit in this game on iPoker.

I dislike flop call because when you are drawing to straights multiway in omaha it is common to have shared outs. Once hero gets to the turn and improves his call on turn is automatic. River question is dependant on whether anyone will take a stab. If people wont take a stab, I bet 1/2 to 2/3 pot.

[/ QUOTE ] He has 9 diamonds to the nut flush, 4 Kings to the nut straight. Someone could have 63xx with a really good xx but I'll disregard that for the moment. With 13 outs, Hero should make his hand around half the time right? If everyone played equally well, he should win one quarter of the pot. Now would not it be right to raise as much as possible?

13 outs with one street to go is far less than 50% to make a hand. Hero makes his hand about 1 in 3 times since we have no information about the other players hands and if we assume bettor has bare set. if we raise we only knock out weak draws that only take a little bit of our equity away, while allowing the set to get allin on turn. If hero had 15 outs on the flop, shoving might be warranted.

Add the 4 outs to the non-nut wheel.

This factors in the 3 non diamond 5 outs as 13 nut outs. 7 non pairing diamond. 3 kings, 3 5s. 3 9s if you dont mind non nut outs.
