This was a big part of why I posted the hand. I think my bouncing between 2/4 full and 3/6 6m made me want to raise here more than it should have, and in retrospect I think folding is correct after getting all those callers on the flop. I wanted to post to see if general option was fold > raise.
But also, I think it's good to point out just how bad calling is here, for all the reasons you mention. Specifically, I raised intending to fold to a 3-bet, and intending to check behind a huge amount of rivers.

Yeah, check behind looks good here. I can't see him calling with anything that you beat, nor folding a Q.
What small percentage of rivers would you actually bet, besides a J? Or is that it?
