Default Newbie question - flopped straight but with 2 clubs on board

Forgive my ignorance or donkishness (did I invent a new word [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img] )but I have only played Omaha a couple times and was wondering about the proper play for this:

Poker Stars
Pot Limit Omaha Ring game
Blinds: $0.05/$0.10
8 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $10.20
UTG+1: $6.10
MP1: $5.70
MP2: $6
CO: $11.25
Button: $4.75
SB: $7.80
Hero: $9.90

Pre-flop: (8 players) Hero is BB with 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, CO calls, Button calls, SB calls, Hero checks.

Flop: T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ($0.8, 8 players)
SB checks, Hero checks, <font color="#cc0000">UTG bets $0.8</font>, 2 folds, MP2 calls, CO folds, Button calls, SB folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $3.25</font>, <font color="#cc0000">UTG raises all-in $10.1</font>, <font color="#cc0000">MP2 calls all-in $5.1</font>, Button folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero calls all-in $6.55</font>.
Uncalled bets: $0.3 returned to UTG.

Turn: 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ($9.1, 0 player + 3 all-in - Main pot: $19.3, Sidepot 1: $2.7)


River: 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] ($9.1, 0 player + 3 all-in - Main pot: $19.3, Sidepot 1: $2.7)


Results:
Final pot: $9.1

I flopped the straight but obviously with 2 clubs on the board is kind of dangerous. I believe I was 3-1 odds when it came my way. In cases like this should I play it safe and fold after the all-ins.

Thanks
