Pantsonfire;162558 wroteYour first thought on this flop is how to get all your chips in the middle against someone with Ax. The only hands beating you are AA and A2. These are both very unlikely. So the only turn cards that would be bad are a A or somebody hitting a two outer to turn their PP into a bigger boat.
Therefore I agree with your play up until the turn. This is now the time to get it all in. A check raise may be risky but if these players are as LAG as you suggest, then a bet is very likely so I would have put it all in over top of any bet. Otherwise, you might want to lead out with a smallish bet on the turn and hope for a raise where you can put the rest in.
I would also recommend that you do not reveal the showdown information in your hand history until after it has been commented upon. We like to guess what the others had and the process of that guessing and what to do about it is really the meat of good poker advice.
Yeah, when looking at this again, I should have bet the turn for sure, especially with a re-raise on the flop. I think I was just scared at the amount they raised with.
I will also try to refrain from putting the showdown information next time. Thanks for the advice!!

It would have been very hard to play if an A came up. I'm good at folding when I know I am probably beat.
At that point I would have assumed at least one of the other two had an A. If they both just checked the turn after the A came up on the turn, I probably would have put in a medium raise on the river to see if they called. If they bet on the turn, I likely would have folded. However, there was only 59 cents left to call, so in this case i probably would have called and hoped for the best. It would be just as likely for someone to have another 2 with trips tied.
