Default Should I have called to the river on this hand?

Playing 4/8 live.
I am the button.
I have K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img],10 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
Three limp in,I raise. SB folds, BB and limpers call.
Flop is K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
BB bets, 2 in MP fold, CO calls, I raise, BB 3 bets, CO calls, I call.
Turn is A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. BB bets, CO raises, I fold.
River is 6 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
BB bets, CO calls.

Results in white:

<font color="white"> BB shows pocket Queens, CO shows pocket 9's. I would have won with pair of kings. </font>

I don't raise KTo after 3 limpers. Offsuit broadway cards don't play well in large multiway pots.

Otherwise the rest of the hand is pretty standard IMO. You can't call 2 cold on the turn with second pair fair kicker.

First, I might raise pre-flop if all three limpers play over half their hands and both blinds are extremely tight, but probably not even then. Second, this turn is a super easy fold.

BB is showing huge strength donk/3-betting the flop into the pre-flop raiser. Assuming a non-insane opponent, that says at worst that he has TPGK. CO is happilly calling along on a pretty drawless board, suggesting he's either completely donating or slowplaying.

On the turn the BB isn't slowing down and the CO wakes up. There is no way I think one pair is good hear anywhere close to often enough to call two cold. I toss it in the muck and wish I could learn to flop better cards.

Now to go read the results and see how far off I am... Given the title of the thread, I have a suspicion, but I'm curious.

edit: yup. they are both insane. File this one away and loosen up your call-down standards against both of them in the future. All those chips will flow back the other way soon enough if they keep playing like that.

Default another ??

Would folding this hand pre-flop be wrong even with 3 limpers??

I don't like the raise preflop but you played it fine post flop.

If two of the three are tight, I prefer a fold.

4/8 live. Folding is insane here. BTW, you can't call 2 cold after tha A drops on the turn. Overall you played it fine.

BUT WE HAVE THE BUTTON!!!!!

Seriously though, we have the button.

I think folding, even if one or two of them was tight, would be wrong.

By the way, we have the button.
