Right play? Raise preflop? Raise on flop to see if he has the 4?

Raise preflop to 3xBB, raise the flop, raise the turn. You have too little chips to be making a tight fold as this, he does not have the 4 very often. And you only have 13xBB, so you have to take a gamble and push the flop here in my opinion, if not the turn.

Yea, what he said. With your chip stack as low as it is (relative to the blinds) you can't afford to be limping into hands. Additionally, once you did hit the flop don't just smooth call. Put in a raise and you would know where you stand in the hand.
