did I misplay my AQJTs? did I misplay my AQJTs?

So since yesterday I've started playing much more aggressively with premium hands and good draws and its been working out for me so far (very short term)

I'm playing this hand against the CO who is raising 25% of hands.
I like my hand and position preflop so I reraise him.

When he checks to me on the flop I like my hand for a semibluff.
I'm more than happy to call his checkraise with my wrap.

Thing is... looking at the odds versus the CO I had:
preflop- 36% equity (5% tie)
postflop- 35% equity (13% tie)

so actually I got my money in bad throughout this hand. Was I just unlucky that CO had what he had, or did I misplay my hand?

    On Game, $0.04/$0.04 Pot Limit Omaha Cash, 6 Players

    MP: $5.03 (125.8 bb)
    CO: $7.03 (175.8 bb)

    Preflop: Hero is BTN with Q T J A
    UTG calls $0.04, MP folds, CO raises to $0.20, Hero raises to $0.72, SB calls $0.10 and is all-in, BB calls $0.68, UTG folds, CO calls $0.52

    Flop: ($2.34) 2 9 8 (4 players, 1 is all-in)
    BB checks, CO checks, Hero bets $2.34, BB folds, CO raises to $6.31, Hero calls $3.97

    Turn: ($14.96) 6 (3 players, 1 is all-in)

    seems fine, never folding this flop, pre is OK, could play less aggro at these stakes pre, but hand is a monster so all good

    yea im also very puzzle on such situation(pretty new to plo too), in a way this board is kinda what we wan with our hand but best case its always 40/60 and if we play it slow,on a blank Turn our EQ mostly will drop to like 25-30ish with not much folding EQ against their strong range (yes if we play aggressive on the turn, raise/shove to their bet they may fold some of their over/top pair hand)

    will really like to heard some pros whats the best way to play similar situation or its like always gii situation?

    btw TS not sure if its cause u use some other program or input 4way to calculate the EQ but i have around 42/57 vs CO hand on the flop (did not input sb & bb since they r short)

    We have exactly the same result just displayed differently...

    35% win + 13% tie = 42% equity combined

    yeah it seemed like a great spot for me at the time but the equity is saying otherwise. Would really like to know what's up...

    I'm thinking perhaps I was just unlucky that he was holding one of my straight draws and 2 of my outs for another.

    start thinking about ranges and not about exactly one 4card combination
    didnt do the math, but vs typical ranges you should be the fav

    hand is wp, totally standard
