Raul clawed it back pretty well that session. Could have been a rough one.

Why didn't Raul raise on the river?

He was scared because of the recent downswing.

He doesn't raise river because in a lot of spots omaha ranges become ******ed and there's no value in raising and you only reverse-**** yourself into losing a big pot the times you got coolered.

Or in English: Isil probably doesn't call a raise with a worse hand very often

An extreme (but rather common spot) example which illustrates the point better is that you just call down barrells with the Ace high flush on a straight-flush board because if you raise it's not like you're getting called by the K high flush.

Clearly Raul tought isi is vbetting there but if raul thinks isi folds some J8 and all lower fulls than no value in his raise.(?) But honestly i dont know the exact frequencies.

Doesnt make sense imo. We dont care the bluff part of his range at all. Only the value part of isi range matters. If Raul thinks he beats isi calling range >50%of time he vbets if not than he doesnt.

That's essentially what I was saying. Since his range leans more towards draws and less made hands it doesn't make sense to raise.

So why wouldn't you raise, hoping Isi puts you on a busted draw?

Think about this: If I raise the river... what bets the flop, the turn and river that calls our raise? We block KKxx, JJxx and we chop with KJxx. 22xx seems somewhat unlikely and it's hard to put him on 88xx when he bets the flop.

Doesn't mean they don't make mistakes, or to a higher probability, make plays that many may not understand. This is one of those plays.
