Check the river, you are only getting called by a flush/straight. Even if someone is crazy enough to call with 2 pair the times you lose to a flush/straight don't make up for it. FYI it is customary to list the buy in to the SNG the hand is from, it helps give context.

Why did you check the flop? I would never give that many people a free card. Especially in a non-raised pot.

He has a set on a drawless board, what are you afraid of? 88 and 99 hitting?

With this many callers, and being in the middle, MINIMALLY, you should mini-raise this hand here on the flop. You're betting to build the pot here. You'll get plenty of action.

Nah, I like check-calling the flop here. The ace makes it very likely that someone will take a shot, and there are no draws to worry about. The fact that it got checked around was just bad luck.

Depends on some factors whether or not to bet the river....I dont think its automatic one way or another.
