The tournament was still in the reentry period and I was at 3rd / 13 / 21. I got the nuts (K-triple) when the flop appeared, and we repeatedly raised each other until all-in. Villain showed a 5-triple with a flush draw, and I got outdrawn. I dropped to the last place immediately.

Did I do anything wrong?

Obviously draws are very common in Omaha, so this is just part of the game. Since he also had a set, he had an extra out, but you are still pretty far ahead of the flop against 10 outs, when you have a redraw to a full house as well. So no you did not do anything wrong other than maybe some awkward sizing. The hand is just a set-up, where both players have to get it in, and then someone has to lose.

On the flop you are never getting draws to fold and there are no strong PLO draws so betting pot will get them to fold most of their range so we do not make the most from this hand by potting flop -- smaller sizing to get called by QJddxx AQhhxx etc etc is more profitable than getting that to fold and only be up against hands with 40% equity

Bad luck hope you hold next time
