It's a tough one, i think i would have made the same fold as you. You have the high nuts, but if someone has a set or two pair, there is still a chance the board can pair making the boat. Too late to do the math but around a 30% chance of a boat hitting from a two pair or set? and a 40% chance of the flush card hitting?. Im thinking implied odds are against you here.

You could also be getting called by a K10 in that situation and also face a draw to a higher straight. How did the hand finish?

Besides folding preflop, I think the turn fold is fine. At best you are chopping with no redraws.

I'm folding preflop because:

both the flush draws are vulnerable.

You are playing for two straights, two pair is too vulnerable to play for in omaha.

You can hit a straight with your 910 sure, but its only going to be king high, anyone with A10 has you beat, and your low straight is also vulnerable, you need to flop A45
and pray a 6/7/8 are not present either, at the same time avoiding a paired or flushed board.
