    I've been running over the table for about 30 min now. I'm thinking of shifting down gears, but boy do broadway cards look purdy.

    filthy3174 is calling with pretty cards. He took a prior pot away from me on the turn and I suspect he wants to play poker.
    Edrendil is a reasonably strong multi-tabler.

    Good bet. Win or split, I doubt you're beat.

    I hate your flop call.
    The rest is good.
    You clould just call the river, but I like the push.
    To win in poker you only need to be one step ahead of your opponents. Two steps may be detrimental.

    Given that the button is betting any 2 in this spot? Once the 3rd guy overcalled the JJx board I knew I was f'd...

    Even so, I think you can find a better spot.
    against 2 random cards, you still ony have A high, and are calling a pot sized bet.
    If you know he won't keep betting at you, its good. Otherwise I think you have to fold.
    The overcall almost screams "I have a jack"
    Which is the main reason I like your river push.
