Default PLO semibluff flop raise, continue on turn?

so i'm new to plo, have a question about spots like these:

PLO 0.5 / 1.0 , effective stacks 130$

I am dealt A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] on button

CO opens for 2$
I call
SB calls
BB calls

Flop (8$)
Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
SB, BB checks
CO bets 7$
I raise to 29$
SB, BB fold
CO calls

Turn: (66$)
Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] [J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]]
CO checks
I ...

Now, In holdem if I decide to semibluff raise a 12-out draw on the flop, I often push allin for ~PSB regardless of whether or not I hit.

In PLO, should I be taking a free card here more often? Seems like there might be far fewer hands that will call a pot sized raise on flop but fold for a pot sized allin on the turn... Now if I have more than 2 pot sized bets left perhaps that changes things a bit. Thoughts anyone?

Thanks, been enjoying this forum lately...

2/3 to Full pot is correct bet here. KK and AA will fold much of the time and you will be 15 outs against them minimum when they dont. You also will have outs to call a push from a made straight.

I love opponents who treat a nut flush draw like it is the nuts.
It's probably where I make most of my money.
To answer your question, raise the flop if you think all your opponents will fold, else call. You really don't want to scare people out of the pot, your hand plays better with more opponents than less, especially when on the button!

I check here way more than most people here but I play Q3xx much stronger.
