Thoughts?

Bet the flop. Given that you didn't, I like the rest.Oh, and in answer to your title - generally pretty badly.

Me too. It's so hard to play AAxx in Omaha. I am seriously winning more money when someone else is holding aces not me. It doesn't make any sense.I wish someone could explain it in detail. (And in plain English. I can hardly understand what some posters are saying)

bud, you probably know when the guy has aces 60% of the time. if you know two of his cards, his propensity to overplay them and you have position on him, you are going to loose a small pot if you can't beat him and win a huge pot when you can. sure its a pf favorite, but the hand (like every other) sucks OOP postflop and the only way you win big pots w/ it is to suckout, cooler someone, or catch someone bluffing.cards don't really matter in this game. that said, lead the flop.

Almost the safest flop for you. You should be thinking how to extract more value instead of worry two pairs or better because they will let you know for most players.Edited, oops, I thought u've got the nut flush draw, my bad... Still bet.
