$4 PL O8 6-max: $ : An O8 (or PLO) 2nd nuts situation. Odds?

OK so if you play O8 or just PLO ( as this ended up a High only hand) what do you see as the best practice in this situation:

Pre flop I felt this hand was marginally good, almost raised but I was new to the table and had no reads yet, so I just limped... Was that a bad idea?

But more importantly when you are facing possible quads and have the second nuts, what is your line here?

Not sure why, when I capped the river that it came out a nickle under... weird.

Post flop looks pretty good to me. Your river bet got raked btw.
Preflop after BB raises and everyone calls you might want to repot it, so you can possibly get aipf vs the BB.

Thought it might be rake. I just didn't know when they extracted it.

raise preflop, rest is fine as long as your planning on bet/folding to a raise

I like a preflop raise or fold as well. That hand doesn't play well multiway, because it doesn't have good nut potential in either direction.

The post flop is good. About full potting the river... it's probably good with AA, but KK I'd be tempted to bet a little small to get more crying calls to offset the AA and T which will call/raise any bet. QQ is definitely not a full pot, IMO.
