Thought about jacking it up here after a bet and a call, but also realized that I'm not going to push anyone off of an ace the second hand of a party 10+1. Might as well see what the river brings before committing.

blech. The river muck is a no-brainer. I'm curious if others would have pushed the action on previous streets or would have taken the same "wait and see what the river brings" attitude that I did. The more I thought about this hand after the fact, the more I realized that the two opponents could have had any Ax after the PF limps, and there really was no way for me to know where I was no matter what came on the river. Even if the second board pair doesn't come, I'm not sure that this is a hand to commit with against two other opponents. Big bet, yes; commit, probably not. Too tight?
