As my previous post states I am new to Omaha HL. But not to poker. Please take into account stack sizes of the people involved, and the size of the pot at the time of the decision to fold or play a big pot. If I reraised all in would the other low have been able to fold? Or would him folding have been a mistake?

And why did G-wiz not reraise the pot with top full house and a shot at low in case someone was getting out of line with another full house? Is this "fear of quads" or save 75 cents possible more of rake really profitable in the long run?

Should the full house have bet the turn to get some low chasers to commit more chips to the pot?

I find this hand very intriguing. I was really at a loss for what to do but felt folding was correct. is it correct to fold nuts low, with a straight on a paired board, 3 handed in HL?

You input on this hand is much appreciated.

Being pot limit... without connecting on that flop.... I'd have folded.

Flop - I hate your hand on the flop. You're runner runner to any kind of a hand. Any opportunity to fold would have been great.

On the turn, when the 2s hit, and def bet it, that should have been a tip off that he was holding A3, gwhiz doesn't raise, so it's likely he's on a str8 draw, or he's holding a good high and just calling to keep you 2 in. the 2 was a trap card for you, because what you really wanted to do was fold on the flop.

On the river, I would have checked. Given def's raise on the river, folding was definitely the right call. Had you called both you and gwhiz would have lost 1/3 of your money. By folding you both come out slightly up and slightly down. So congrats on a good read and a good reaction.
