I had the following hand happen to me this morning:

Im dealt 6c 9s As Ad in a 6 player hand and 4 make it to the flop in a 5cent/10cent pot limit omaha hi/low game on fulltilt. I know, how can you expect to see real poker here...

The flop comes Js Qs 5s...

I check the flop in first position looking for a check raise. It is checked around.

A 5c comes on the turn and i am a little miffed at myself for not betting the flop. I place a pot size bet of 40cents and get fold, call, fold.

8s on the river and i bet the pot again with a buck 20 and get called.

How would you have played the hand?

Thanks,
Jordan

PS: Is this the right way to ask for consultation on a hand? ie: Explaining the hand without the result and asking for advice then giving the result?

I bet the flop. Specially against that many opponents. Rarely ever slowplay in Omaha.
Get paid off by the two pairs chasing or by lower flushes. Any card that pairs hurts you.

Plus i think check raising will simply announce very clearly your hand, while if you bet out you could get value out of weaker flushes and hands thatll put you on a wider range.

At river id have check called.
