Pot is $50 on the flop for my last call which I have to make I think. Any thoughts appreciated.

PokerStars Pot-Limit Omaha High, $0.50 BB (6 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

CO ($24.75)
Hero ($62.65)
SB ($27.10)
BB ($129.85)
UTG ($15.65)
MP ($28.25)

Preflop: Hero is Button with T, 7, 5, 6.
1 fold, MP calls $0.50, CO raises to $1.5, Hero raises to $5, 2 folds, MP calls $4.50, CO calls $3.50.

Flop: ($15.75) T, 3, Q (3 players)
MP checks, CO checks, Hero bets $12, MP raises to $23.25, CO folds, Hero calls $11.25.

I don't get it swiggs. Is it even worth 3:1 here? Also I don't think I cbet this flop very often, is this a standard play for you?

I don't like the preflop 3bet. That hand has too many gaps (and in the wrong places, 8764 would be a much better hand) to be any good. As played check behind on that flop and see what happens.
Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

haha, thanks. I was just thinking about this hand and realized how fucked my post is going to look.

Pre-flop, this guy had been raising a lot pre, and I had been calling. This isn't a great hand pre at all and folding would be fine, but I figured it would be a good hand to raise. He would put me almost squarely on AAxx and if I hit he would read me wrong and if I missed I could bluff a lot of flops. I totally did not expect shorty to come along.

I have no idea about the quality of my flop bet. On one hand it missed a huge part of his range. I figured CO would fold and if MP calls I can check behind the turn or something, not really sure. I under bet a bit because if CO doesn't fold he's pushing and I will GTFO.

After he pushes, I'm getting 4.5:1. I have to have 18% equity, because it's omahaha, right?

This is not standard at all. I haven't been 3betting much pre and I need to start to continue being successful.

So, overall I guess I"m more interested in my though process than the mechanics of this specific hand.

Not really. That QTx will hit a lot of the middle/high card hands that he will often have.

i don't mind the flop.

but reraising preflop just sux here IMO. either calling or folding is superior to reraising.
