Default Top Two fold on Turn

My first live limit session. After observing the tables, I feel very comfortable sitting down. Very loose game with most flops are seen by >3 players commonly for more than one bet.
UTG has played poorly, UTG+1 has raised, bet flop and called 4th and 5th to non-threatening boards w/AA twice.

Three Limpers, I raise in SB w/ A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], BB folds, UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, other limper folds.

Flop: A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
I bet, call, call.

Turn: Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
I bet, UTG Raise, UTG+1 Calls, I fold.

River: 6 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
UTG Bets, UTG+1 Calls.

How bad was the fold?

Quite bad. The chances your hand is best now (pretty good) plus the chances you'll draw to a full house on the river (4 outs) make a turn call (or 3-bet) mandatory. If your read is fairly certain that your opponent won't make this play without a flushor straight, just check-call the river. But you really shouldn't be folding this turn.

eek...i think you should be debating whether to smoothcall this or 3-bet...but fold not good...there's a very good chance someone spiked a lower two pair or even just wanted to slowplay top pair. Especially if this game is as loose as you say, you can't fold

Even if one of them showed you his flush/straight, you are getting 10.5:1 to call. You'll fill up about that often, and gain some bets when you do. Plus you'll beat any lower set if that's what he has. Fairly easy call.
