Full Tilt Pot-Limit Omaha, $0.50 BB (6 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

saw flop

CO ($10.15)
Button ($25)
SB ($51.55)
BB ($24.35)
UTG ($22.30)
Hero (MP) ($71.15)

Preflop: Hero is MP with , , ,
1 fold, Hero bets $1.75, 2 folds, SB calls $1.50, 1 fold

Flop: ($4) , , (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $4, SB calls $4

Turn: ($12) (2 players)
SB checks, Hero Question

This looks great until the turn card makes a possible straight. Do I just check the turn and fold if the table doesn't pair?

I would bet / fold unless the raise is small. Your hand is probably best and you charge flush draw / pair and straight draw combinations. Always needing the nuts to continue betting in these spots is a really transparent way of playing.

To have a straight he needs AQxx, so either he had AQJx, or the flush draw, I would expect a decent player to raise these hands. I think KT, KJ, QJ (maybe with flush) are all just as likely as is TT.

I think you can b/f since you're not getting paid if the board pairs and if he has the flush/2pair he'll call the bet and maybe you'll gin the river.
