Default Re: Am I out of line here? AAT5 hand

First off, yes I do think you over valued your hand preflop. Aces are nice, but you had no suit and a bad low or top straight draw. After ther flop, you far over valued your hand. Your 3rd best and bet into 2 opponents, if called or raised, you're a big dog if not drawing dead to a Ten going into the turn and river. A better choice might have been to check-raise if one of them made a move at the pot. At least you'll almost always know where you stand by their reaction to your raise. But once called by both on the flop, you have to hit the brakes. You might be good at the time, but a big dog going against 2 plyrs with 2 more to come. Only 5 outs to fill up and very long shot for quads. Almost always a boat or flush will be made by the river. Hell, even a wrap straight has more outs to come home. You're in bad shape with Trips A/kicker to hold up.
