Nah, that's good imo. His stats indicate he likes to call, I doubt he's ever folding any J.

Looks fine to me.Might bet a little more on the flop (2.25) and that allows us to come closer to shoving the turn.

Looks about right, although I would have bet more on the flop. More around the pot size area.Also, if you're always getting that many callers pre, I would be tempted to start raising more.

I agree... if the game is loose and 5 callers preflop is standard, tighten your starting requirements for raising and make it .75 or .80

Looks good. I like preflop.

Looks good. Like king1305 said, I'd bet a little more on the flop to allow for a turn shove.As played, I actually wouldn't hate a turn shove since it's not that much of an overbet.

Am I the only one that's a bit worried about playing TPTK this fast into so many people?

Well, checking this flop 5 ways would be horrible, and betting any less on the flop makes very little sense.Then on a very safe turn we have only a little over pot left with TPTK on a safe board against one opponent.Generally TPTK 5 ways would be risky, but the way this has played out we should be happy getting the money in.

With these stacks youre pot committed with TPTK, so play it to get all the money in. Your play worked, so it cant be bad. The alternative is to check the turn hoping to induce a bet from SB on the river. At these stakes Id just play it straightforward as you did.
