PokerStars | Pot Limit Omaha Hi/Lo Cash - $0.02/$0.05 - 5 players
Hand #94481737122 - delivered by Pokeit

BTN lucky lew 51: $4.79 (95.8 BBs)
CO rjuha: $3.08 (61.6 BBs)
UTG BluffinBilbo: $13.00 (260 BBs)
BB Oleg Schahty: $10.82 (216.4 BBs)
SB yurecF1: $5.82 (116.4 BBs)

Pre-Flop: ($0.12) Hero (BluffinBilbo) is UTG with A♦ 3♦ Q♠ 7♦
BluffinBilbo raises $0.17 to $0.22, rjuha folds, lucky lew 51 calls $0.22, yurecF1 calls $0.20, Oleg Schahty folds

Flop: 7♥ 6♦ T♣ ($0.76) (3 players)
yurecF1 checks, BluffinBilbo checks, lucky lew 51 checks

Turn: 9♦ ($0.76) (3 players)
yurecF1 checks, BluffinBilbo bets $0.70, lucky lew 51 calls $0.70, yurecF1 folds

River: 8♠ ($2.16) (2 players)
BluffinBilbo bets $0.95, lucky lew 51 raises $2.92 to $3.87 ALL-IN, BluffinBilbo folds

Final Pot: ($3.89 | rake $0.17) (1 player)
lucky lew 51 wins $3.89 +$2.02

Is this hand strong enough to open raise from UTG in a 6-max game? How does my openraise range look from utg in PLO8?

As played, is it good to pot on the turn when i hit nutflushdraw and have second nut low draw ?
I dont like these spots where i play oop

Check turn. You don't have that good equity here, as at least one of them has a str8 most of the time.

By the way, you are playing PLO5, not PLO8

I agree with betting the turn. Opponents are unlikely to have a straight that often given 6789T are the worst cards to play in Omaha/8

2nd nut low draw and a nut flush draw plus a pair is strong enough. On the river I would check/call since you have some showdown value with your pair and 2nd low. Villain can definitely be jamming hands like QJ but obviously A345 and some A2 are scooping/quartering you which is why I check the river rather than bet.
