With the overcall on the river, this is a very easy fold.

But your flop and turn play leave much to be desired. I probably wouldn't lead this flop into 4 players. Atleast bet the pot on the flop. Lead the turn for more.

wow.....

Dude the turn is horrific. Lead for the pot. If you lead there for $2 and get minraised, you HAVE to come back over the top. You've got top two....realistically you are only fearing sets. There are straight and flush draws out galore and you are letting them chase them for free....absolutely horrible turn play.

Given how the turn went, I don't see how u are ahead after an all in and a call. I think this hand plays vastly different if you don't play the turn like a fish.

I think Villain 2's range might be some sort of PP or overpair. It may only be 99s or TTs because he limped but could be JJ. He may also have 44-77 and think he can fold out top pair with a raise. If he has 22 or 33 your in trouble.

Get aggressive and 3 bet villain 2 on the turn. He likes his hand and unless he has the set you're in good shape.

Villain 1 may be drawing to a straight. A 3 bet on the turn might fold him out, but even if it doesn't we'll take his money too and hope his draw doesn't get there.

Pot the turn. If a donkey pushes call. If a rock pushes fold.
