I felt there was a higher chance thye were both drawing to the low. Was hoping theyd both be interested and maybe even get a raise out of them. Didnt quite work but oh well. Should i have bet the turn more and charged them to draw...and should i have bet the flop?

Im very new to this so go easy on me.

I would say bet a pot sized bet off the flop and make them pay to draw to the low, this accomplishes getting a few each bets in which makes you profit if you do end up spliting it and also if both people call it could drive out any flush draws that could be chasing only high instead of letting them get free cards to outdraw you.

Now off the turn i would probable do the same thing because you the nut high and there is no low hand possible yet so you've got a chance to scoop unless a low card comes down on the river.

and the river if you think more than one of them hit a good low then you should probable bet it out, but if you think only one of them will call then you should definately check because all it does is give money to the rake if you get one caller and you split it.

Don't worry about the rake.
