Default Put myself in tough spot with pocket Aces

Live 5-10 game. Both villians seem to be bad players who play loose call to much and love to chase draws. I have 3500 villian 1 has 1000 villian 2 has me covered.

I raise to 55 after 1 limper and 3 of us see a flop of KhJh2c. I bet 150 and get called by villian 2 and checkraised to 350 by villian 1. I then reraise to 850 to try to isolate the shorter stack only to have the guy who has me covered call and the checkraiser fold. This is where it got tricky since I was in a bloated pot OOP with 1 pair with 2600 behind. What should my plan be on turn and river assuming I see non hearts and straight cards.

After playing the hand I realized I hated my flop raise, because of the position it put me in.

In the actual hand 3 clubs came on turn and I bet 1200 and 4 spades came on river and I bet remaining 1400.

i think you should try to keep the pot as small as possible

If they are really bad then this is fine, looks a lot like an awfully played draw in which case checking the river would be better. But if you think he could have a naked king here river shove is good.

i dont think you should be repopping the flop though, slow it down and see what develops.

You lose 3,5 buyins pretty easily to a set.
