WRONG!!!

Back to Dans point, your preflop play here is fine, a lot of limpers to a 3 BB raise, go ahead and see a flop. Your flop play could be more aggressive, maybe $3-$3.75, although you WILL be suprised by how many callers you still get.. if an ace falls on the turn it is great only if someone pays you off.

When the 4 falls, you have to realise two things, someone has made a better hand than yours, you only have a few outs on the river, 2 5s, and 4 6s, 4 aces (not to mention the few dead aces out there) You have at best 10 outs if they are all still good, which gives you roughly a 20% hit rate by the river a 5-1 chance (just below) the odds on the turn only give you 2.6-1 this is NOT A PROFITABLE CALL

Another note, PP vs 2 overs is very close to a coinflp... why take a coinflip?
