I'n new to Omaha, so heres my thinking even if it's probably wrong (for hand below). I check the turn as I think I'm only getting action from a better hand here, so am surprised when opponent checks behind me. The river doesn't change anything for me and doesn't complete the other possible broadway straight draw opponent could have been on, but I still check as I can't see a worse hand calling me. So then I am faced with a pot sized bet on river. Should I call here, as I could have induced a bluff here checking turn and river and clearly indicating I don't have the flush. Many people at this level don't seem to make big value bets like this on the river disguised as a bluff, but as I'm used to seeing it in higher 6-max NLHE games. Maybe I should bet half the pot on river and fold to a raise rather than checking?? Would appreciate any advice, cheers.
