Default PLO8 many draws nothing made

I'm wondering if I'm putting in too much with draws, or if this is standard.

2-4 blind PLO8 I have around $400 in chips and am in the cutoff. UTG (254) limps, UTG+2 (~450) limps, I call with A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. Button folds, small blind (~550) completes, and big blind (200) checks.

Flop comes 2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] giving me nut low draw with week protection, and the nut flush draw. Small blind checks, big blind bets $20, UTG makes it $40, UTG+2 calls, I call, small blind folds, big blind pushes all in (196 total) UTG+1 pushes all in (250 total) UTG+3 calls, I call. Pot size 962.
Turn is the J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] and UTG+3 makes me put in the last of my 150. With extra outs of the gut shot, I feel obliged to call.

Am I turning into a calling station, or should I be putting in this much money with a hand with this many draws?

I would have probably pushed the flop. Nut low and nut flush draw is a big hand

You should be shoving all in on the flop, against top set you are 55-45 favourite.
