The classic top set vs. what is probably a big draw (or two). Do I wait for a safe turn and then jam, or get as much in now as I can? MP1 doesn't have much left behind, and MP3 has me covered. If I reraise pot here, the rest of the money is going in on the turn regardless of what hits...

Sounds like I played it right, then. I reraised pot, MP1 called off what little bit he had left, and MP3 called as well. Turn was the , but I put in my last $8 anyway and was called by MP3. Luckily, Riverstars lived up to the name and put another King on the river.

I don't even remember what MP3 had, but it was some random junk - he was basically dead money. MP1 really did have a huge draw - A789 suited in diamonds, so he was a 55-43 favorite on the flop (MP3 had something like 2.5% equity). Oh well.

Even if MP1 flips up his hand and shows you the twodimes printout you're pushing the flop - folding is obviously -EV and, out of the times you win, 30%+ of them will be because you paired the turn - you'll miss out on his stack if you don't push. Even though you're a slim underdog this is one of those frequent occasions in omaha when pushing with the worst hand is the best move.
