It's a good spot for a free card play, isn't it? Raise the flop, hoping they check to the raiser on the turn. With two opponents on the turn I probably take the free card if given. But if either folds, I consider firing again and then checking behind on the river.

Yeah, if you are going to stay in the hand raise the flop - information is cheaper when you are talking small bets. If you get 3bet then go into calldown mode. You are probably ahead of BB (who is likely donking a pair of 5s or something like an A4 gutshot).

Turn would be a lot easier to play if you raised the flop - BB donking out again would tell me he isn't afraid and I probably should be. Chances are they'd both check to you.

As played I bet-call river. The draws missed, and you are ahead often enough for a value bet here.

That is, unless you have some kind of ultra-passive read on one of your opponents.

This is my first thought as well, not only because it's an easy fold to a 3bet on the turn, but because you'll often get called down by worse hands.
