I'm new, but to me, everything about the flop is good except there are 2 to a low, meaning the pot will likely be split, and you can only win half. I don't like playing hands that can only win half the pot in PLO8 (as opposed to limit). When the low gets there on 4th street, time to check-fold as you did.

Looks OK, just a bummer. I might have check-raised the flop if you felt it was likely someone would be their low draw.
