Total pot: (10.25 BB)

Results:
Total pot $61.50 | Rake $2

Hero: [5s 5h 3s 5c 7h 4s 8s] (three of a kind, Fives)

Seat 4: [Th Ad Kd 9d 8d 6h 4h] (high card Ace)

I would usually raise 5th and/or 6th here, but Seat 4 didn't have enough to single-bet every street, and I didn't want to chase away the other player with a raise. I planned to raise on the river if Seat 7 had called--but he time-out folded. Is holding off on a raise because of a low stack that can only pay single bets to 7th in a multiway pot good reasoning, or exposing myself to risk too much?
