Default Stars $100 PLO flop decision - Easy shove vs shorty?

I've been 7-tabling for about half an hour. No real reads except villain is at one or two of my tables and hasn't got out of line yet. I have been playing pretty LAG, ie: open-raising any decent hand from MP or LP, occasionally open-limping in EP. I have been cbetting most flops when checked to.

I like a fold. Your pair in the hand makes it harder to improve,if your behind. And even A5 is ahead. AA5x is shove btw.

What about KK5x? I thought it was pretty close.

Easy Fold ... You haven't really redraw and let you with pure two outs.

Okay well I almost timed out, but decided I had been playing aggro enough that he might check-raise with air or a draw as well as a 5, though a 5 was much more likely. In the end I shoved, he called and had KK5x. Doh. But no worries Q on turn. Ship it. Thanks for advice.

i'm a rookie when it comes to Omaha... may I ask why AA5 is better than KK5 and that's better than QQ5?
i don't really get it since it's 2 outs for each... iknow this is probably a really basic question, but i could use a basic answer, thanks!
