PLO5 AAQ6ss

Seems fine with in mind he leading so much and is tough for him to improve if he has a Q and you lose only against 44 on the flop.

Flop raising would be the standard play here. Your trips+top-kicker is more vulnerable since our pocket-pair is reducing our outs from 10 to 6 against a potential full or fullhouse-redraw. Another reason we are usually bluffraising so we have to balance this by doing it with strong hands too, otherwise our ranges will be very visible.

Once called the flop, the again pot-sized turn-barrel is showing a lot of strength and due to poor playability we should fold our hand now. The river is quite a blank and we have to call if we assume villain triple-barrels his bluffs from the turn again (few player actually triple-barrel allin as a bluff oop on those stakes though) but the mistake leading to this was made on the turn where raising allin is the alternative option to folding.

Thank you.

I was close to fold on turn, but i couldn't.

Villian had 44xx.

Yes would have been a cooler anyways since you are not raise-folding on the flop and you would have been allin anyways with the top-kicker to your trips. Only if you are up against a nit, you can raise-fold because they usually do not go broke with a weaker hand otf.
