OK--so preflop I'm 58%---question--should I have re-raised there?
After the flop I'm still 58%--so is my reraise all-in correct there, or should I haver cold called?  My reasoning is based on there being no flush draws, best possible scenario is he has lower set, most likely scenario is he's on a straight draw.

Although some people may say that you should have re-raised preflop, I would have played it the exact same way that you did.  The original pre-flop raise was significant enough to see a flop before getting too much money invested, in my opinion.   Smiley

If you knew villain at all, I think a reraise was in order.  If he made a habit of opening with that kind of hand, you should pop him all day long.  Without reads, I think (and I'm no omaha expert) I still reraise most of the time, but flatting isn't bad. 

Obviously the postflop is standard.

was a Rush game, so no reads.  Villain has opened with a pretty standard hand.  Because I didn't raise preflop, I don't think the villain can put me on A-A, probably thinks I have a similar hand to him, in other words, I'm still on the draw after the flop.

I would just flat call after the flop. I don't raise too much playing Omaha unless I know for sure I have da nuts. Been scalded quite a bit in Omaha being overly aggressive before the Turn and River.

  Have to agree with Ribby , though I certainly understand your reraise .

Can't really go wrong pre unless you fold.  If you like variance, then you can 3-bet, but there's many scenarios where flatting here will get you one, maybe two streets of value postflop -- albeit in a small pot.  Flop play is totally standard and exactly what I'd do.
