No reads, hadn't been at the table long. I fold turn if I don't hit (or pick up extra outs). I push turn if he checks.

PokerStars Pot-Limit Omaha High, $0.25 BB (5 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

MP ($34.35)
Hero ($23.05)
SB ($79.80)
BB ($20.85)
UTG ($24.25)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 8, 4, 7, 6.
2 folds, Hero raises to $0.85, 1 fold, BB calls $0.60.

Flop: ($1.80) 8, 8, Q (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $1.5, BB raises to $6.25, Hero calls $4.75.

Turn: ($14.30) 9 (2 players)
BB bets $13.6, Hero calls $13.60.

TLR is an unknown quantity at this point
I dont play much omaha hi

Preflop I dont think your hand is great, but if you intended to steal blinds thats fine

You have to lead the flop, and his reraise can mean tons of things - attempt to pick up the pot if you are bluffing, some sort of draw or combo draw or 8x.

However once you called and he bets turn again you are in a lot of trouble, you are probably either drawing to the boat or drawing dead.
If a boat will win it for you then you have 10 outs and you are getting about 1:3 on your money, I think folding turn is not bad

I think on the flop I'd either have to fold or raise depending on whether I believe him

I believe he has an 8, I don't believe he has Q8 or QQ.

I probably just fold it on the flop. If you think he has an 8, you are drawing at 9 outs max, and some of your sidecards could be in his hand too. You could very easily be drawing dead too. Calling his raise will tend to get you into trouble, folding when you're ahead or calling when behind later in the hand. Having called the flop, I would turbomuck to his PSB on the turn unless I had a strong read that he was bluffing, especially since TJxx just made a straight and 89xx just boated. You're extra straight outs are really worth about zilch, since he could already have the bigger straight or boat, and a 5 or T could boat him up if he still only has trips.

Usually aggression at 25PLO means they have it (with "it" > air). For some reason I though I could outlpay (draw? lol) an 8 with a better kicker.

I guess I was being results oriented. He has naked 8Axx so I was 42/58 or something on the turn.
