Villain in this hand has been at the table for a few orbits. This hand happened a few minutes ago. He said after the hand, "I think you had AAxx."

PokerStars Pot-Limit Omaha High, $0.25 BB (5 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

Hero ($84.75)
UTG ($25)
MP ($19.15)
Button ($33.55)
SB ($26.55)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A, T, A, Q.
1 fold, MP raises to $0.85, 1 fold, SB calls $0.75, Hero raises to $3.4, MP folds, SB calls $2.55.

Flop: ($7.65) 6, 4, 5 (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $6, SB raises to $23.15, Hero folds.

Final Pot: $19.65


So I think he's at least competent at recognizing good bluff spots (where I am likely to be weak). Now this hand comes along. At first I'm calling flop for my wrap, plus plan on bluffing if he checks on a turn heart. Then the turn card plus his instant pot bet made me think he was bluffing a lot. 3xxx wasn't that likely, as was 44xx, so I think the only reasonable hand that's ahead here is QQxx and I strongly suspect he doesn't lead for full pot, when it's quite obvious I'm probably weak here. So I make the calldown. Thoughts?

 44 I agree is unlikely, 3 could be in his hand.

I feel it's pretty thin, but I've done some weird shit with reads. I could see him putting you on a heart draw if he's a thinking player.

So, I don't hate it, but I don't love it either. But take my advice with a grain of salt.
