Ok, so let's assume he has the hand he said he did. Main pot is $17.77 and already someone is all in so odds are his high hand of ace high on the turn probably is not good against that and he is facing a $19 bet from an opponent who has $1 left after. Also, there is a solid chance that if he only hits a low it will be quartered (which may be the reason I consider folding to the turn bet despite the number of outs)
He had a ton of low outs and scoop outs which is why he called, and while the fold to the $1 bet in the 50 pot on the river seemed horrific, he did only have a bad ace high. Thus, as insane as it looks was just calling the turn instead of putting in the final buck a semi freeroll for that buck? Personally I put in that last buck (if I chose not to fold on the turn) just to avoid the nightmare of seeing another busted A2 hand win, but this struck me as sort of a strange situation given the stacks.
Can a case be made for the call/fold plan he used here, and if not for the amounts in this hand (ie:$1 in a 50 pot) what about if the opponent had say $5 back after his turn bet, where at least there is a bit more in the way of implied odds if you hit one of your many outs, which did not exist in this specific hand.
My assessment:
He screwed up just calling the all in on the flop when he was able to just reraise shove there with a monster draw and maybe make the other guy fold, and if he does not then he is still ahead of nearly everything anyway. On the turn he probably should fold because there is no implied odds and his low draw may be for only a quarter of the pot. River, well no idea since I would never find myself in that spot with those stacks

I agree with you, I would probably reraise on the flop and raise the max. Although you do have a lot of outs you are still drawing in both directions. If you can make a set fold there (probably unlikely at these levels) and go heads up with the all in person I think you need to try and do that. And if the other person calls you are still alright with 2 cards to come.
As played I think I fold on the turn. You have to assume you are up against a made straight at this point and might be up against A2 as well although it is less likely that the same person has both. I guess a set from the all in person isn't too farfetched either. You need a perfect spade to fall on the river and a high non pairing one if you want to scoop.
According to Cardplayer you are winning the high about 20%, the low about 8% and scooping about 11%. Your equity is about 27%, you are getting 2 to 1 with no implied odds, so I guess it's closer than I thought it would be.
Fail. Omaha is a game of draws, the 'made hand on the flop' is a nice to have rather than a requirement to raise.
Heh, well yeah, in fact the only thing I would do in his shoes on the flop is make sure I could reshove if the shortie pushes to my initial bet. Sometimes you have to bet a little less then pot to set that up (to make sure your raise is at least a full unit reraise after he shoves), but in this case it was not an issue.
My question is once he gets past the obvious shove on the flop without shoving and is there on the turn what should he do then.
the call isn't a complete trainwreck, if he gets there for low on the turn he's probably getting a quarter of the main pot but he's likely freerolling for high in the sidepot.
as played he should have folded turn
