Default Stars PLO50: Are my redraws strong enough to call the turn push?

My big flop raise made it clear that I had top set, and his call indicated some sort of decent wrap.

The turn gave him an obvious straight, but it also gave me 3rd nut flush outs on top of my boat redraw.

PokerStars Pot-Limit Omaha High, $0.50 BB (9 handed) converter

MP3 ($30.55)
Hero ($48.25)
Button ($49.85)
SB ($47.75)
BB ($99.25)
UTG ($11.15)
UTG+1 ($52.60)
MP1 ($49)
MP2 ($25)

Preflop: Hero is CO with 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. MP2 posts a blind of $0.50.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls $0.50, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP2 (poster) checks, Jomppa(80) calls $0.50, Hero calls $0.50, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: ($3) 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(6 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, UTG+1 checks, MP2 checks, <font color="#CC3333">Jomppa(80) bets $2.85</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $9</font>, SB folds, BB folds, UTG+1 folds, MP2 folds, Jomppa(80) calls $6.15.

Turn: ($21) 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Jomppa(80) bets $20</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $38.75</font>.

River: ($79.75) A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

Final Pot: $79.75

Results:

The call is even money.

About even assuming he doesn't have the king flush redraw. (or two spades)

So good call.

This means there is no reason to raise when you are presumably currently behind and your hand is only even money. But it is a good call since there would be money left to bet, thus supplying implied odds for when you improve. However, against two opponents who both made a straight on the turn, then your equity would be better than 33% so you should in that case raise in order to insure getting paid off when you improve, and so that you don't have to make a tough decision with a non-nut flush.

I re-raised him on the turn only because I wasn't folding and there was no reason to just call when my calling would leave him with $1.

Any doubt about calling with this hand pre-flop?
