PLO 11 $ Tournament. Blinds 300/600

Hero (SB): 17343
BB: 4000
MP1: 29673
MP2: 3350
CO: 4166
BTN: 20698


Preflop: Hero is SB with A 4 5 8
MP1, Mp2 fold; CO, BTN, Hero call, BB checks.

Flop: (2400) 2 A 8 (4 players)
Hero bets 2400, BB folds, CO raises all in 3566, BTN calls 3566, Hero calls 3566

Turn: (13098) T (3 players, 1 all in)
Hero bets 13098, BTN raises all in 16832, Hero calls 13177

River: (39452) 7 (3 players all in)

It was relativ late in the tournament, but not yet ITM.
Chip average was in this time 13000, I was not so desperate that I had to shove my chips here.
I Flopped Top Two Pairs, Nut Flush Draw, Gutshot Straight Draw, 3rd Low Hand and I decided to try in this spot to build a big stack and try to win the tournament.
In retrospect I think the hand was maybe overplayed.

I'd be thankful for your opinions.

Looking at it some more, even though I don't think hero can fold by the turn, a smaller sizing on the flop is probably better, especially if it lets you re-open if shortstack jams

Thanks for your answer.
yes a smaller raise and a reraise all in on the flop would have been probably better.

CO had 6 8 3 2
Bottom Two and a marginal low hand

BTN had 3 4 9 J
Nut Low Hand and hits runner runner straight

but also with that checkraise all In on the flop I would lose the Pot anyway...
can't imagine the BTN folding the nut low hand in that spot even if I go all In.

I don't think your hand has lots of incentive to bet the flop, and betting so big is imo a clear mistake. After that you should just shovel the moneys in though.

Start with a check, if BTN bets or calls a bet, just call, otherwise shove.
