Yes, it's a Freeroll, but I don't play Omaha, and I am trying to decipher what CHSVU88 was re-re-reraiseing with.

I had top 2 pair, straight draw, flush draw, but I don't know if I played this correctly. Thanks in advance for any help.

I'd definitely cap the flop, as about the only thing you can honestly worry about would be QQxx, and that's very unlikely given that you have a Q in your hand. There's no real draw for lo.

If I were to venture a guess as to why he capped it, I'd only think that he thought the K high flush draw would be good if it landed, and so he was trying to get some value for his draw since it looked like you two were sticking around.

Eh, I'd be more willing to put him on 55xx on the flop trying to protect his set. But yes, capping the flop is your best bet. Even if the villain has 55xx, you've got 17 outs twice to take the lead (4 boat, 4 gutty, and 9 flush). You'd have to assume Flushy probably has some of these since he's calling, but since you have the nut draw for both, I think raising is fine here. The same goes for the turn since you want to make them pay to draw to a low.

I don't see any value in betting the river b/c odds are Flushy made some kind of low, and you'll just get that bet back. You might even get quartered if he was calling you down w/ AQ and a couple low cards, which is a possibility.
