Raises pot? Or just calls? I am thinking call as perhaps villain just has a straight, then double his river bet

I haven't played much omaha so I may be missing something obvious here, but its basically been nutcamp and get overpaid so far

bigspenda73 will become famous soon enough

minraise?

weired spot, i can fold 44/33 here but I dunno about this guy. Pretty sure he wouldn't pot a board-pairing turn w/o a full house so I minraise and try to get some value out of the river.

Villain could well have a straight and be trying to keep us from getting a free spade. If we just smooth call, we very likely won't even get a call on the river if a nasty card like a spade or 6 comes off.

On the other hand, his $5.55 bet is something I've seen done by guys trying to represent having (just) a five. In which case he may well have 33/44. I'd bump it up to $15 so we have a good chance of getting his whole stack on the river. Plus most villains won't expect quads if we raise now

Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.
