i admit i played this badly, i should have let go on the flop RE raise, but i had different reads on these players. the short stack i thought he was calling a pair and i thought the guy who RR me was trying to RR semi bluff to get a free river card to get a flush... boy was i wrong :(

If "let go" means fold, then no. You played it fine. Very hard to fold on that flop. Looked like the other players may be going for straight/ and or flush draws. Just one of those hands that makes poker so tough....

Some stats would help.
After I saw the all in I belive you are beat on the flop and at least one of them has a set and the other a flush draw or 8 high. Unless both of them are super crazy I think you could had saved a big portion of your stack.

Ps. I saw the outcome and it was as I suspected. I belive the 2 pair guy was a Loose Passive fish and the set guy a NIT or bad TAG things that should had ringed the bell on to you.

Alright, so it wasnt the worst that I could have done :/
I honestly think I could have let go on the turn instead of shove, but my read was 1pair and flush draw RR.

Bad read, bad results. But not the worst played poker.

Are we in agreement gentleman? :D

Goodness knows why CO calls you instead of shoving his short stack after flopping top set. 3 people in the pot, I would be wary of the diamond draw. If he plays it properly and 3-bets you/shoves, a fold is maybe a bit easier for us. QQ on that board you would expect to be fine. But when we have people calling 3.5xBB with 68, these hands happen. Im sure he'll be losing more than he's winning playing 68 :D

Yea agreed, its sucky too because the 88 hit a 1 outer :p and so did 68, then turned a boat lol but oh well im over it and i think my play was not the worst, just truly unlucky. I MIGHT have been able to fold in position, but i still think i would pay them off reugardless..
