I tend to fold on 3rd. The dead five just makes it not worth the effort even given your excellent position. However, given you played...

4th is worth a bet. Other than the 6c or 3c what other card did you want to see? You have a reasonable hand and can possibly knock 2-3 people out by betting here. Welshman bricked and should fold, and Stokeraces just checked by catching a pretty scary card (flush and best low draw on board), he may have paired dueces and may fold as well. Xixist is now facing 3 likely low draws, unless that queen gave him two pair or trips he should also toss here. Now I don't believe all will toss, I think it likely one or two of them will.

If stokeraces had acted after you, I would have check/called but given the position it's a bet.

On 5th, the raise is good. YOur board is mondo scary. Had you bet 4th you might have been able to take the pot here. As it is, isolating Stokeraces (I doubt he has the low right now) and kicking out people who might outdraw you isn't a bad idea.

6th is a bet, keep the pressure on them.
7th, If your plan is to call a bet from either of them, then I would just bet out. Your board is much scarier than theirs and they're unlikely to raise. Checking wouldn't be horrible either, but it sometimes bites me in the a$$ when I do.
