I sense that when you wine and dine me in London, conversation will not flow freely.

I don't re-raise the river. I bet/call.

i take it this was limit?....funky...i prefer pot-limit hi/lo...much more fun thinking about hands 
limit omaha has to be freaking obnoxious...whoever is winning on the flop is prolly gonna get beat by the army of limpers and callers

Yea as shiaty as it is , i don't re-raise the river either. someone smooth calling the turn only to raise the river = they are trying to maximize the $ to be made. I would have been thinking kk at that point , but k8 works too.
Other then that , you played it about as percfectly as you could , and yes you did get unlucky but maybe not too unlucky. You have to assume that if someone is shareing trips with you , they potentiolly have 9 outs to make a higher boat.
example
you 2358
them 8jkq
flop 588
they are drawing to 3 k 3 j 3 q - if they had 3 overs to the 5 , which is very likly  So in all acuality , they had proper pot odds to chase the higher boat lol. Limit omaha , crazy game.
*edit*
err , looking at the oteh guys hand ........ 238k ......... yes , yes you did get unlucky lmao. he hit a 3 outer on the turn
