Default PLO50: Hard Turn decision + bonus

Hey, guys! Have one more intresting hand for you to discuss. This time I have monster preflop and I am playing vs. one unknown villain and really tight second one:

Party, $0.25/$0.50 PL Omaha Cash Game, 6 Players
LeggoPoker.com - Hand History Converter

BB: $91.25
UTG: $16.25 - Unknown one
Hero (MP): $57.15
CO: $60.15
BTN: $50 - 150 hands, 19\10, Agro 1.5
SB: $67.55

Pre-Flop: J Q T K dealt to Hero (MP)
UTG raises to $1.75, Hero calls $1.75, CO folds, BTN calls $1.75, SB folds, BB calls $1.25

- I know, I can 3bet here but I found that UTG is very short and my hand is good to play in multi-pot, so, I chose to call.

Flop: ($7.25) 9 2 3 (4 Players)
BB checks, UTG bets $4, Hero calls $4, BTN calls $4, BB folds

- Call is standart, I think. Pot odds are 2.8:1, I have flush draw, backdoor another one flush draw and other backdoor straight draws.

Turn: ($19.25) 4 (3 Players)
UTG bets $10.50 and is All-In, Hero ?

- Here we are. When the turn came 4, I was so happy, because I got my second flush draw... But after UTG put all his money in the pot, I really was dissapointed what to do coz I want to play this pot but I have tight villain after me who will decide what to do (f*ck, mum said me to play in position ONLY! ). Also, this 4 closed a lot of straights and if I will call it and BTN pushes, I need to fold? Or can I push myself right now?

What is your line here?

And, as it was told, bonus hand with my explaining - really want to see your feedback:

Party, $0.25/$0.50 PL Omaha Cash Game, 5 Players
LeggoPoker.com - Hand History Converter

SB: $102.10 - 23/15 after 84 hands but he have 35% open from SB and I saw him opening too much last 10-15 mins
Hero (BB): $62.85
UTG: $55
CO: $75.25
BTN: $94.15

Pre-Flop: 5 9 9 6 dealt to Hero (BB)
3 folds, SB raises to $1.50, Hero raises to $4.50, SB calls $3

- I know, my hand is bad but I wanted to do something with him.. As I think, it is too bad to call to look on flop and fold a lot of flops where he will easy cbet. If he will call my 3bet, I can represent AAxx, bet it myself, have initiative etc.

Flop: ($9) 3 6 5 (2 Players)
SB checks, Hero bets $7, SB calls $7

- Wooohooo! Got It! I bet, don't think, have another opportunities.

Turn: ($23) 8 (2 Players)
SB bets $12.50, Hero calls $12.50

- hmmm, strange donk, as for me. He represent here 79xx but if so, he needs to bet more to protect himself from flush draws or 2 pairs and 1/2 pot bet is not what he needs to do. Also, I have 2 blockers, so I call.

River: ($48) J (2 Players)
SB bets $28.50, Hero calls $28.50

- He bets really fast. My thought proccess was:
if he had bluff on turn with maybe one pair or flush draw (better hands he will ch/call turn or ch/raise, not donk), and he caught his 3 outs to 2nd pair Jack, he is lucky, urgh. But if Jack was not his out, I will win (if I was right on turn, ofcourse).

Results: $105 Pot ($2 Rake)
SB showed Q 8 K K and LOST (-$52.25 NET)
Hero showed 5 9 9 6 and WON $103 (+$51 NET)

Waiting for your responses, thanks!
