Should I have played this one more passively, i figured that i could get people to call down because of the size of the pot, but well it only semi succeeded... so Im not sure i played it the right way...

This is fine. You got two people to call you down the whole way when you had their hands crushed.

I guess maybe you could check at some point (on the turn, maybe?) and hope MP2 decides to bet aces up, if that's what he has.

But I think what you did is better.

It's unfortunate that no one to your right decided to raise or checkraise you with an ace or even a pocket pair, but sometimes when you have a monster, you will encounter such raises.

No, you played it fine. Just unlucky noone raised you with an ace. If I had an ace on that board I would have raised you.

Just bet it. If you check-raise successfully you will likely stop everyone and maybe even make less on the hand.

There are alot of posts re: "Did I play my Quads correctly" IMHO You played it fine I know some will say check the flop and look for a C/R on the turn but with these monsters Its not about how you play its more if another player has a hand to go along with you, in this hand probably a weak Ace called you down...... and these happen so infrequently, just bet out and hope someone raises you.
