This part I totally agree with. I should have considered his dwindling stack and let this one go pre-flop.

With deeper stacks for both of us, I really don't mind calling his raises in Omaha/O8 with basically anything, especially if I have position. I'm lucky to have a good read when he's weak, plus the knowledge that he is a good enough player to play aggressively early in the hand but fold late if he assesses his hand as weak. No matter how big a pot has gotten, if I put a move on him and he doesn't have much, most of the time he'll fold. This occasion, though, was not the right hand and not the right time.
