Default PLO8 hand - questionable turn push or not?

Playing PLO8 0.10/0.25 on Bodog when the following hand came up.

I'm on the button w/ A-2-3-5 double suited. MP raises to 0.75, two call, I call, blinds fold.

$3.35 in the pot. Flop is A-K-4 all hearts (I do not have any hearts).

First raiser bets $1, the two limpers fold, I decide that if he doesn't have a flush I have a great draw and low insurance, so I call the $1.

The turn is a 7. At this point the bettor bets $5.35 (the pot). He has $7 left in front of him after this bet. I decide that he may have a flush, or he might just have low. Again, I am hoping my draw to a straight is live, and I now have the nut low, so I decide to raise him the rest of his stack, which he calls. He has A-Q-3-2 w/ no hearts and is in front w/ Aces with a queen. The river is a 7, and I take 1/4 of $30.

My question is should I have folded to the pot bet? Was I wrong in pushing the turn? Should I have even played the hand altogether? Please share your insights!
