8 handed, early in MTT
UTG Fold
UTG+1 Limp (53 BB)
ME in LJ Limp :qd4::10d4: (66 BB)
HJ Limp (66 BB)
CO Limp (80 BB)
BTN Limp (65 BB)
SB Complete (64 BB)
BB Check (66 BB)


FLOP
:10c4::8d4::6d4:


Action checks to me, I bet 1/2 pot 3.5BB
Call, CO Min raises to 7 BB, folds back to me, I re raise to 25 BB


Both players call. Pot is now 83 BB with effective stacks at 40BB


TURN
:2h4:


I do not think that either player has the straight, I am representing the straight, so I shove my 40 BB all in. BOTH PLAYERS CALL


RIVER
:6h4:


CO shows :jd4::4d4: for missed flush I had him dominated, drawing to 3 remaining Jacks
HJ shows :9c4::6c4: for rivered trips. They flopped a pair and a gut shot, back door flush draw


================
I don't mind my preflop limp, as with the hand that I have, it has a lot of equity, and plays well multiway. I am wondering how I should have played the flop, check raise? Flat the raise? 3 bet jam for 62 BB? Seems way too big

I think the way you played it was fine. You had a strong hand but the other players had decent draws too. I think the turn shove should work more often than not but since it's a freeroll people are going to call draws too wide and occasionally get lucky. Flatting or shoving the flop probably wouldn't have got them to let go.

Looks fine to me. Those pesky rivers sometimes kill and sometimes thrill.

I think your raise to 25bb is a little overdone, maybe you could have done a little less and played a smaller pot, so it would affect your stack less if you were wrong. Overall I think your range was ahead and yours oponete hit 6 in addition to having the drill for the straight. As for the flop I believe that maybe thinking about throwing a smaller pot you could check call

Rereis on the flop is a bust. You will not force the freeroll to drop the fish if it is caught over the board. But you only have top pair. You are behind sets, straight and doppers. It is more reasonable to play a call and catch a flush.
