Right? Wrong? I had to call 10 to win ~30, so i decided to call.

I would just bet/3bet the flop since the pot is already large and your opponents are somewhat shortstacked.

Both opponents were aggro and totally nuts, typical "hey-its-just-a-couple-of-cents-wtf-i-call-lol"-type.

Their stacks are 9.10 and 15. I'd bet 4.50 on the flop and call if either one of them pushes.

You want to get the money in on the flop because of the amount in the pot and the fact that your hand doesn't play well on the turn if it misses. I'm not sure about the turn call just because you're calling to see one card with no more money to extract from these guys (also, your line is pretty face up even to fish if you hit your flush).

bet/3bet flop. If you're going to raise this hand for value pf, then you've got to play it for all its worth when you hit a monster flop.

Villains as described, I probably am not popping pf if it's almost certain to go multiway. What's with UTG's pf action? converter error?

Great flop for you, c-bet &amp; shove it. I don't quite understand why you would check.
