Table full of horrible players. Five to see a raised flop is not that unusual.

Nice river card, but I don't see how i could have played the hand any differently before that. Plan was to c/r the flop if a bet and at least one call ahead (pretty likely given this bunch), but once it's c/r'd into me i'm worried about a made straight.

Didn't like paying two bets on the turn, but not much i could do about it except fold to the second bet and pot was too big for that. Also, SB just called the flop, could have made FH but would expect a flop c/r with a set or two pair on a draw-heavy board. So maybe Jx.

BB's flat calling the c/r on the turn could mean a slowplayed FH that he's trying to suck me into an overcall with but doubt he's that clever - more inclined to think he's too timid to try to shut me out with a made hand. So i'm still putting BB on a straight or possibly bottom two pair, maybe even QT who knows...

River raise/fold was my plan given the action. Anyone do a raise/call?

I'm not sure if the this river play is "correct" or not but I'm probably going with a raise/call considering the size of the pot. I dont know how much tougher stars is than ongame at the 2/4 level but I've seen SB have utter crap here like J2s too many times to fold this river.

You could be right about calling a re-raise. Pot is pretty big. Can't be too worried about BB here at least since he just called the first bet.

The four preflop cold callers should give you some idea of how tough this particular game is lol.

Both called my river raise.

SB had KQ, BB had Q8.
