I get check raised by not one, but two people? What the hell do they have?

PokerStars Game #3610735609: Hold'em Limit ($5/$10) - 2006/01/12 - 02:58:59 (ET)
Table 'Sadachbia' Seat #5 is the button
Seat 1: bluechips99 ($286.50 in chips)
Seat 2: chuckb223 ($622.50 in chips)
Seat 3: Bullseye 900 ($304 in chips)
Seat 5: bencathers ($325 in chips)
Seat 6: Deechie81 ($218.50 in chips)
Deechie81: posts small blind $2
bluechips99: posts big blind $5
*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to bencathers [Ks Qs]
chuckb223: folds
Bullseye 900: folds
bencathers: raises $5 to $10
Deechie81: calls $8
bluechips99: calls $5
*** FLOP *** [3d 5c Qc]
Deechie81: checks
bluechips99: bets $5
bencathers: raises $5 to $10
Deechie81: calls $10
bluechips99: calls $5
*** TURN *** [3d 5c Qc] [2h]
Deechie81: checks
bluechips99: checks
bencathers: bets $10
Deechie81: raises $10 to $20
bluechips99: raises $10 to $30
bencathers said, "what"
bencathers said, "haha"
bencathers: folds
Deechie81: raises $10 to $40
Betting is capped
bluechips99: calls $10
*** RIVER *** [3d 5c Qc 2h] [8s]
Deechie81: bets $10
bluechips99: calls $10
*** SHOW DOWN ***

Bluechips loved to c/r on the turn against a pre-flop raiser, but deechie's confused me as I had no read on him. Is it safe to say I'm not only beat, but drawing dead the majority of the time
Dealer: bencathers has two pair, Aces and Deuces
Dealer: Tbags has two pair, Kings and Jacks
Dealer: Tbags finished the tournament in 256th place

elipsesjeff is an unknown quantity at this point
 I'd say it was a good fold most of the time. Your table chat is marginal at best, however.

hard to say...perhaps beechie has a4 for straight and bluechips (who did not raise the river) maybe has two pair or even a low set. it wouldn't suprise me if you had one of them beat, though, but that's irrelevant.

it's an easy fold in that crossfire, but you probably have to call down if it was just Heads-up against either.

They were both in the blinds so they can have many different hands. A 4 is looking like a good posiblity maybe even something stupid like Q 5 or
6 4 suited.

Bing! 4-6 suited was the SB and 2-2 was the BB. I just couldn't believe how well that 2 helped both players... really threw me off.. if it wasn't for the double check raises I'm probably losing a bit more on the river

pretty shocked that deuces called a raised flop. glad he got what he deserved. chasing a two outer that becomes a ten-outer once he hits it cause his outs are tainted.

in 6-max 5/10 on PS, a lot of players have a hard time folding, especially if they caught anything. If this guy didn't hit his 2, he's probably calling me down, thinking I'm on an ace high blind steal (from my stats with him, he was constantly calling me down with bottom pair, no kicker, etc etc... so I simply tightened up against him and busted him quite easily)

His bet on the flop indicates he hit something, but I come right back to let him know I did as well. However, he's stubborn and wants to hit the turn, as is the other player (oesd + backdoor fd = call a 10 dollar bet!)
