A couple of questions from a player new to PLO8

I am playing a fairly low stakes 6-handed game. I am in the hijack and I am dealt A238 rainbow. I raise to 3x the BB, and the cutoff calls. The cutoff is a new player to the game.
The flop is 245 rainbow. I bet around half pot and he raises pot. I call.
The turn is an 8, I check (I am pretty sure he either has A3 or 36.) He bets pot and I call.
The river is river is a 4. Check, pot, call.
He shows A356 for both the wheel and 6-high stratight.
My question: Is there any place in this hand where I can fold?
===============================================
Same game: I limp from the hijack with 2356, with 2 hearts.
Button and both blinds play. The flop is K hTh4. It gets checked around.
The turn is the offsuit 6. The action goes bet, call, I call, and fold.
The river is an offsuit 3, giving me the 6-high straight. The board is KT346, with no flush.
The action goes bet pot, raise pot.
What should I do?

If you share your stack depth, it will help determine spr considerations. Equity wise on the first spot you are 34% vs his actual hand, and you only need 33% to call a pot size bet. 2nd spot I fold.

I think had had around 60 BB for the first hand and 40 for the second.
Thanks for the reply. It is helpful.
