Yesterday morning at a pot limit Omaha table, I nailed 4 Kings.

Pre-flop: 4 people (including myself) saw the flop for a dime. I was under the gun (if you look at the picture).

Flop: Nail my quad Ks. Someone bets a dime. 2nd position folds. I call to throw off any signs of me having Ks. Last person calls.

Turn: 1st position stupidly folds without checking. I had to think of how much to bet without setting off alarms. I bet 0.20, about 1/3 of the pot. Other dude calls.

River: I had to bet here or forever hold my peace. I bet 0.70. Lo and behold, other dude goes all in, and I insta-call. He made his boat on the river and never saw my quads comin'.

I did seek advice from a poker buddy of mine on LiveJournal and he told me I shoulda bet more on the turn. Should I have done that? Did I make any other mistakes?

Thanks in advance and may you get

Yeah, I agree with your friend. You probably could have gotten away with a little larger bet on the turn, but what does it matter? You got all his money anyways. Nice hand and well played.

I edited the post to show the picture. The post is fine btw. As for your question - I think making any money in this spot is gotta be considered OK - quads is a nice hand that seldom gets richly paid.
