Usually 3 pr is ok on the flop , but if you don't improve keep the pot small.
Omaha is an action game and hands like this can be very costly.Depends a lot on your read of the villians.

Oh and bottom 2 pr is almost always the kiss of death.

 Turn is super standard.

From my experience this is a QQxx-AAxx hand, maybe with the flush draw. I didn't get raised much by wraps @ 25PLO (that made it to showdown anyway). When I did I noted the player wasn't ohmatarded (because "standard" 25PLO player is an obvious 1st level player who doesn't raise draws)

 Yeah looks fine. Out of position you pretty much need to jam it all in here.
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.

 Jeebus, I forgot to comment on the flop.

My default reaction was ewww, don't 3bet 2 pair in small pots. But, since he's shorty it's definitely not bad. You could probably raise to $3.50 and use your FE on the turn with your bet being closer to pot.

This is a great example of position being important. If we call flop, leading the turn kind of sucks because he can just call and try and hit river (assuming he has a decent draw), and we would have < 1/2 PSB remaining. You can't count on a c/r on turn because he's checking behind everything that misses him.

I like 3betting the flop for image purposes. I don't think he ever folds on the flop, or folds to the turn lead and he always has decent equity (>25% say). If I ran into a set, whatev.
