I would probably raise more on the river and hope someone has an overpair, but good hand.

My only critique would be not raising more on the river, but I just hate min raises. I also didn't realize you had less than 200 left, and the prospect of calling an ALL IN is scarier than a min raise, so I think you got max value out of it. Especially considering the hands you were up against, you played it the only way you could have to make money. Any bet would have made them fold, except maybe a small raise on the turn for the guy with the flush draw.

nice way to triple up from the bb

Thanks dude....and coming from you all be me a little surprised it is very much appreciated.....your thoughts mirrored mine....the all-in on the river is a scare move and I wanted a call, although like I said in my last post I was unaware that you could see the mucked hands in the HHs (18months at AP), so it kind of confirmed that I have to check this to the river and then once he put in the 150 bet.....I felt I cannot just flat call (I believed I could not lose) so if I raise the min (such an easy click to do....shows no thought IMO) at worst I have guaranteed myself the extra 300, they have now put in, and then if they both call then the extra 300 I've earned for having and played this hand so well.....lmao
