Dealing with open ender draws

Hi I'm new to the site so please forgive the layout of my post. This hand is for a live cash game $1/$3 nlhe at Crown Casino Melb, Aus 9 ring table.

UTG: Limps
($90) Hero UTG plus 2: Raise $12 QJ os
I get 6 callers bb, sb and UTG FOLD pot is now $60 most players have $150-$200 stacks

Flop comes K, 10, 2 rainbow.

I believe I played it wrong by acting first and going all in. Look forward to receiving some advice on this

There is nothing wrong if you go allin vs 6 other players with OESD on non-flushdraw board (and even vs 3 players it is still good, we will have at least 27% equity). But given that this is a very very rare situation I believe, you can check and decide depending on action and bet sizings. If there will be a bet and multiple callers, we can overcall. Will also be good if it will be checked around.

If we had QJs with runner flush draw, I would find a reason to bet flop and jam turn if hit flush draw. Well if we get 1-2 callers with short stacks and less than pot-size bet left, I also think we need to jam OTT.

Without runner FD and playing with a tonn of shorties, I'd took a passive x/call approach depending on action.

Thanks for the advice, I think I'll go with the check first and see how the action plays out next time. At the time I was trying to steal the pot there and then with a semi bluff.
