BB and CO are loose passive. SB is slightly loose and passive. On the flop, I thought a 3 bet would likely lose CO & SB so the overcalls seemed best plus I had to put BB on an overpair & a 3 bet might lose SB. I thought keeping CO & SB was better than 2 betting the turn. On the river, I figured with a 4 card straight showing, going for overcalls was the best choice.
I can't believe I never bet this hand (it felt like a sin) but I have a hard time seeing where raising was better than calling. Please correct my thinking.
