I`m pretty sure I don`t know what I`m doing...
Thoughts and questions below

$0.02 PL Hi (6 max) - Omaha Hi - 6 players

CO: 100 BB
BTN: 80 BB (VPIP: 86.59, PFR: 26.83, 3Bet Preflop: 3.23, Hands: 82)
SB: 207 BB (VPIP: 66.67, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 30)
BB: 94.5 BB (VPIP: 44.44, PFR: 3.70, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 27)
UTG: 84 BB (VPIP: 90.91, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 11)
Hero (MP): 122 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB, CO posts penalty blind 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 2.5 BB) Hero has 2♣ A♣ 6♥ Q♥

UTG calls 1 BB, Hero raises to 5.5 BB, fold, BTN calls 5.5 BB, SB calls 5 BB, BB calls 4.5 BB, UTG calls 4.5 BB

Flop: (28.5 BB, 5 players) Q♣ T♥ 5♦
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, Hero bets 18.5 BB, fold, SB calls 18.5 BB, fold, UTG calls 18.5 BB
Thoughts and questions:

Spoiler

TPTK looked so weak here, but I still had a FD; I could check for sure, but give 5 villains a free flop and turn looked too much...
Check or bet? How much?

Turn: (84 BB, 3 players) 6♣
SB checks, UTG checks, Hero bets 40.5 BB, SB calls 40.5 BB, UTG calls 40.5 BB
Thoughts and questions:

Spoiler

Now, I think my 2pair could be actually ahead. I still lose to QT and sets, but I guess any of those would raise me OTF or OTT

River: (205.5 BB, 3 players) T♣
SB bets 142.5 BB and is all-in, fold, Hero calls 57.5 BB and is all-in
Thoughts and questions:

Spoiler

Could I call here or would I be behind most of time (vs fullhouse and quads)?
I mean, the pot is huge and I only have 1/4 stack left...

Spoiler

SB shows 3♣ K♥ J♦ 3♠ (Two Pair, Tens and Threes)
(Pre 47%, Flop 42%, Turn 20%)
Hero shows 2♣ A♣ 6♥ Q♥ (Flush, Ace High)
(Pre 53%, Flop 58%, Turn 80%)
Hero wins 310 BB

Hi pguest,
This hand is a wonderful example of the craziness of low-stakes PLO
I like the raise pre-flop, but nobody folds, so you really need help post-flop.

OTF, you have TPTK, but only a backdoor flush draw
OTT your two pair isn't the top two. Your bet shows strength, and lots of draws can come along.
OTR you must call since the stack-to-pot ratio is so low, and catch villain bluffing.

Questions:
Pre-flop -- would you call or raise to a 3-Bet?
Flop -- what would you do with a check/raise from one of the other players?

I hope you took notes on SB!

Check flop, in multiway pot you need to have a lot stronger hands to bloat the pot. But as played, pot the turn. As you said, sets and QT are a bit unlikely and you have the flushdraw as a backup. Pot for protection and commitment, you don't need to play the river then.
