BTN plays tight and reasonable from what we have seen (which is only around 200 Hands)

888 Poker, $0.05/$0.10 Pot Limit Omaha H/L Cash, 8 Players
Poker Tools Powered By Holdem Manager - The Ultimate Poker Software Suite.

Hero (UTG+2): $10 (100 bb)
MP1: $5.71 (57.1 bb)
MP2: $26.28 (262.8 bb)
MP3: $17.19 (171.9 bb)
CO: $10.65 (106.5 bb)
BTN: $9.12 (91.2 bb)
SB: $9.80 (98 bb)
BB: $11.78 (117.8 bb)

Preflop: Hero is UTG+2 with T 6 A 2
Hero calls $0.10, MP1 calls $0.10, 3 folds, BTN calls $0.10, SB folds, BB checks

I think I am usually raising this, especially against loose-passive opponents but here I decided to just call. Is this okay?

Flop: ($0.45) J T 6 (4 players)
Hero bets $0.35, MP1 folds, BTN raises to $1.50, BB folds, Hero ?

I am leading out because we have a solid hand and want to build the pot against weaker FD's. Facing the raise we dont' feel too good about our 2Pair anymore but we are ahead against almost any hand except a set as far as I can tell. So basically our decision depends on how many hands our opponent will raise on the flop and will stack off with after getting reraised by us. If Villain plays most of his draws passively then getting it in here is bad especially given that the pot is tiny in comparison to our stack size. If he would play hands like KsQs98, Qs987 and JTxx aggressively and get it in with then I feel potting/jamming is fine here.

While playing the hand I felt that I should only call here, but we are only really afraid of JJ, TT as we still have around 44% against 66xx or KsQsJT. How do you judge the situation? Is bet/jamming this flop vs a relative unknown spew and a call much better?

calling pre's fine if you wanna, but i'd raise it up a little bit. raising would have made flop get in easier to deal with. i mostly like open-limping when table's a little too 3-betty for my tastes.

i think there's a lot of prudence in playing flop more passively. i mean yes and no. when you ship here what are you really going to war against? generally a lot of stuff you don't like, and you're praying he just has QsJs or 6789 or something really dumb like AJ*s*s. but that's best case.

i mean at micro limits people will have worse ranges so i don't actually know if bet/ship is +EV or not so i don't know what's optimal. but i definitely would be really cautious in general with this SPR.

anyway ya i'd probably just actually c/c flop. actually probably my normal line because often you get to see it go bet > raise and be like PEACE cause you know it's JJ vs TT or something you don't really wanna deal with.

Bet/call the flop is fine, we can't fold with the backdoor nut low draw

Probably raising pre most of the time if not all the time, I guess table dependent but at least 75%+.

As played, I think bet/call is the best line here. I wouldn't argue with a C/C flop decision either given how many to the flop. C/C narrows your range a bit on helpful turn cards, a B/C represents a stronger hand and disguises the flush draw/lower two pair to a higher degree.
