Give Me Five... Actually, Don't...
I was playing a live cash table last night. £1/£2 blinds.
I had pocket 5s and about £400 in front of me. I cover everyone at the table. It was raised before me to £12 and I called, along with two others, so there are four of us in the pot.
Flop comes 4 5 J. Two spades.
The first guy to act bets £50 - just below pot-sized, and it's called by both of the other two before it comes to me. There's now almost £200 in the pot, and I probably make the mistake of calling.
Turn is an offsuit 2, so I know that hasn't changed anything.
First to act bets £100. Call, call. Now it's on me. I choose now to shove - a raise of about £250. I am called in all three places. Bear in mind I have everyone covered so, I figure I should at least take the side pot.
Now, on that board the only hand that really concerns me is pocket jacks. I figure at least one of them has a flush draw, probably the lead, actually, because surely you don't call £100 on the turn for the flush).
Cards over. River is another 2... and not a spade. I am now only beaten by pocket 2s and pocket jacks.
What did the other three have?
Did I win the hand?
Did I play it too slowly?

Were you bumhunting drunks again? I'm gonna guess a stubborn AA and 44, but the live standard is so woeful that I wouldn't be surprised if someone rocked up here with KJ and A2ss.
