Why no bet/raise? Is there some read that wasn't included?

Bet the river for sure. I'd bet ~8$.

Edit: I just noticed you had a straight draw on this flop as well. There's certainly nothing wrong with checking/calling this flop as you did, but on flops like this I will often lead out for a PSB, even into a couple of people. You've got a lot of equity, so you might as well start building a pot. It also makes your hand more disguised if you hit on the turn.

I was worried i was being to passive. Is it pretty standard to lead or check raise the river here? I just don't like that i'm up against three other players but i think my hand is good way to o much. What turn and riverlines do you like here?

I would pot the turn and bet about 2/3rds pot on the river. Go with your read if you get raised.

I would lead the flop as well, but there is nothing wrong with checking it.
