I don't play a lot of PL Omaha, but I think you have the best hand enough to push here. You've got 60% of your money in as it is, why would he check the river if he made the nuts? I think you're good here, or if not, pushing may get him to lay down a small flush or pay you off with trips (which I think is most likely considering the betting).I don't see any betting issues either.

I thought about betting but i couldn't find a worse hand that calls me. Wouldn't a set C/R me on flop?

preflop. flop. turn. shoving river. Getting 4:1 he'll probably call with 78xx or possibly a set. If he hit a flush and checked so be it.

River is a shove only due to our stack size. If we were deeper and he could re-pot us off of our hand, then I'd say check it down.

Check raising a set is not a very good idea in Omaha, especially PL, because a set can be behind a wrap + flush draw (I think). But this is coming from a pretty passive player who doesnt play much PL, but I would probably rarely raise with trips on a 2 suited board.9,9, K Q 2 hearts pays you off, 66 KQ, 78QQ w/ 2 hearts, QQanything really. I think you're forgetting he could be on a heart draw as well, just not the nuts. I still say push the river and see what happens. I think you're ahead. A flush, any flush, should bet in that spot, especially with your stack size.

This is very true. I ignored my stack size on river while in the hand.I actually checked river fearing a 5 high flush call. Obviously pushing is the best play.
