PokerStars Pot-Limit Omaha High, $0.25 BB (9 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

Hero ($78.80)
MP3 ($30.10)
CO ($23.35)
Button ($24.65)
SB ($39.50)
BB ($11.90)
UTG ($24.15)
UTG+1 ($14.05)
MP1 ($10.10)

I don't normally raise this naked KK like this without a few more spots to better position but I havn't played a hand in a while and was feeling frisky.

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with 3, T, K, K.
2 folds, MP1 calls $0.25, Hero raises to $1, MP3 calls $1, CO calls $1, 1 fold, SB calls $0.90, 1 fold, MP1 calls $0.75.

Flop: ($5.25) 4, J, 7 (5 players)
SB checks, MP1 checks, Hero bets $3.5, MP3 calls $3.50, CO folds, SB folds, MP1 folds.

I felt pretty good about the flop and didn't mind betting out. I had a few spade blockers in my hand and felt like a flush draw was most likely to call me.

Turn: ($12.25) T (2 players)
Hero checks, MP3 checks.

I checked here simply to keep the pot a little smaller and not to bloat a pot with a marginal hand.

River: ($12.25) K (2 players)
Hero checks, MP3 checks.

Obviously a great card but also fills a straight draw. I had my button on the bet $6 amount, kind of a blocker/value bet but considered against it. If I bet and he raised I wouldn't really know where I was at. Since I was OOP I was planning on c/c a river bet that was not close to a pot amount. Is this hand more standard the way I played it or did I miss a bet on turn/river?

I think you should be firing this turn. If you believe you are getting called by a flush draw on the flop, no reason to let him get there for free on the river.

Don't think you should pot control here. Now if MP3 also had 3 buy-ins, I think a case could be made for it.
