Background: In two previous hands on this table, my early raises got too much respect, so I decided to change it up with a limp. Initially I thought I got my wish, with 3 people calling the capped preflop. No reads on the people in on the flop, but the table had been pretty LAG.

Please critique my play. Is there a point where I should have laid this down? I hate folding a river on a hand like this, but should I have at least assumed one of the two had KK or QQ and folded the river?

Hey Bill, tough break. I think this is just a situation where you have to pay off. I don't think I would have laid it down anywhere.
