PokerStars - $0.10 PL Hi (6 max) - Omaha Hi - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

SB: 354.9 BB
BB: 100 BB
UTG: 138.7 BB
MP: 38.5 BB
CO: 52.6 BB
Hero (BTN): 120.6 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has J

fold, fold, CO raises to 2.5 BB, Hero calls 2.5 BB, fold, fold

Flop: (6.5 BB, 2 players) K

CO bets 3 BB, Hero raises to 15.2 BB,

I was just wondering if this kind of raise might be not the best line because I block straight draws from which we would get calls and I really do not see villain having worse hands if he calls...?

Villain can call our raise with all straightdraws, lower two pair and overpair. That is what I typically see in this situation.

Vs 52bb I'm fine with raising and getting money in. As we also block the two highest sets.

If we slowplay here 3/4 cards might give flushdraw, can make straights or pick up straightdraws, better two pair, counterfeit us.

So usually raising flop would be my preferred action.

And this is also good board to bluffraise as villain can cbet light and can't have the flushdraw so if you think villain folds a lot start bluffing him more.
