Default 15-30 omaha limit high hand. 2/3 structure

Hi guys, I know this is basically a PLO forum but I dont know where else to turn, so heres a boring Omaha limit high hand.

4 people limp in and I complete in the sb with Kh Qs 7s 6d, and the BB checks.

The flop comes out Js Ts 3h. I check, two others check, a person bets, another person raises, the action is now on me. What should I do?

Assume flop bettor and raiser are both unknowns. Also would your strategy on the flop change if both the flop bettor and raiser were bad players who were generally too aggressive?

Thank you very much for anyones comments.

-Wes

i have two draws, plus two overs, i am calling here all day.

i must admit, i probably suck at omaha, but i didn't drive all the way to MCC to fold a flush draw+OESD+two overs.

Against two maniacs/megafish this hand might be playable.

Otherwise this is an easy fold. You have six outs to the nuts and might be splitting if you hit and your hand holds up.

I would usually bet this flop...

check calling the flop is good. Bet out if you hit the turn IMO.

I'd call. You're calling 2 SB into a 10 SB pot which gives you close to the right odds to call just w/your open-ender and the flush will be good fairly often when it hits too.

I have very little experience playing Omaha, but my poker sense tells me that if you have a draw that is not strong enough to coldcall a flop raise, and a semibluff bet will never will this pot UI, then betting out into this field cannot possibly be correct. So I feel like theres something wrong with your statement Autobet.

Hi Mike, This is actually my first time playing Omaha limit high besides my experience with the pokerstars play money tables. I did read Bob Ciaffone's book on Omaha so I did have some kind of foundation to worth with. I felt compelled to join this game cuz it was a round by round game, with the other game being limit holdem. Also, this is the highest limit in the detroit economy that I know of. I wish a 20-40 or 30-60 game could be sustained here but thats just not gonna happen.

BTW, I folded the flop and I think it was a mistake and I'll say why in another post.
