I did not think that any raises on the turn or river would have scared anyone away and with the 5 cards, I felt that my high cards were behind. How bad did I play this?

I don't hate it that much. But I think you bet again on the turn, and then check the river through unimproved. Seems like a really loose/passive game, not much you could do. I think you're correct that you are not folding both of these guys.

Not horrible either way. Go on player read. If none, neither play is that far off. If one less caller (1) I'd bet, if one more caller (3) I'll check.

For what its woth I'd have bet the turn. Then again I think Im even or a slight loser with my A/K,Q,J this week.

CO played this horribly - he had the nuts! [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Nah, you played fine. I'd bet the turn heads-up or with a rainbow board, but I don't think you get them to fold often enough to make the strong play valid.
