You have 3 limpers pre flop. After that flop like top two pair you should bet more than 50, I play here about 175-200 because maybe somebody has something like Jx or straight draw and they should pay for you. You should not slow play here. If you play more than 50 then maybe UTG would fold his third pair after the flop. Take care :)

That's the problem into a multiway pot, even with 2 pairs your hand can be easily beat.
Really the bet was weak on flop, the intention is to expel the maximum of players in the pot and unfortunately we can not accept an all-in, even more with the double 5 on the turn.

Yea your post flop bet was very weak, I tend to bet 1/2 the pot or more if I hit on the flop. He may of folded with just a pair of 5s with you being on the SB he could of put you on AA, KK, QQ etc if played strongly :)

GL @ the tables :)

You should have bet more because its a multiway pot and its a scary board with possibilities of straight draw on the flop. You have to protect your hand. Bet of 1/2 pot is good here while your bet of 50 is just invitation for call.
