What happened on the river?

Game is playing very passive, but not overly loose (except for Button, who folded preflop).

I think I can find a fold here, and I think you have third best hand here a lot, and often fourth-best. I bet the turn as well, a gutshot with one probably good over and the flush draw should be giving you equity enough for that. It's close, and I'd rather bet than check for other reasons than immediate equity.

Good reason to fold PF.
