Here a hand that was really fine, but I'm interested in hearing if at any point I should have played different. In the end I think I got the maximum out of it, but that's my point of view.

0.05/0.10 No-Limit Hold'em (10 handed)
Hand recorder used for this poker hand: Texas Grabem 1.9 by www.pokerstrategy.com.
Preflop: Hero is BB with 5♣, 5♦
UTG calls $0.10, 3 folds, MP2 calls $0.10, MP3 calls $0.10, 3 folds, Hero checks.
Normal play I think
Flop: ($0.45) 5♥, Q♥, 5♠ (4 players)
Hero bets $0.20, UTG calls $0.20, MP2 folds, MP3 raises to $0.40, Hero calls $0.20, UTG calls $0.20.
So fine. What to do now to get the money in. Thinking about this hand I don't have to bet here, because I just checked my BB. In the hand I thought contibet (contibet? I didn't bet) not to be suspicious. Maybe this took out someone who would have hit anything later and put money in the pot
Turn: ($1.65) Q♣ (3 players)
Hero checks, UTG bets $0.60, MP3 calls $0.60, Hero calls $0.60.
I have two opponents who seem to have something, so I thought let them play
River: ($3.45) 9♠ (3 players)
Hero bets $0.99 (All-In), UTG raises to $0.99 (All-In), MP3 calls $0.99.
Here I think I have to go allin, afraid that they could just check down on a two paired bored. Actually I hoped that someone or both hit a FH
Final Pot: $6.42
Results follow (highlight to see):
MP3 shows [ 2c, 2d ] two pairs, Queens and Fives
Hero shows [ 5c, 5d ] four of a kind, Fives
UTG shows [ Tc, Th ] two pairs, Queens and Tens
Hero wins $6.10 USD with four of a kind, Fives.
Beside the bet on the flop I'm quite satisfied with the way I played the hand, but very interested to read your way of playing this hand
Your first time quads?
