comments welcome on all streets. I'm pretty sure the river push is good (I'm not folding to his push, and he probably only bets when he beats me, might call with a Q). What about the flop and turn calls?

I don't see any glaring mistakes. The river push looks great; if I'm reading it correctly it looks like this opponent is pot committed by that point anyway.

The only big issue that I see is your decision not to lead the flop, especially when it's checked to you by one of your two opponents. There's ~4000 in the pot, I think a standard lead would be about 2k to 3k.

The argument against is probably that there's a short stacked opponent behind you who could easily push and force you to call for the rest of his stack. I believe there is a decision there, and I'm not positive about the answer, but I think I'd still default to leading given this information. And if he pushes, it's probably a math problem.

Also, you're a great poker player and a valuable and respected person.
