this is seriously a table full of donks... some of the worst play ive seen all night. i thought it was possible that the villain was floating with Ax which explains the all in push on the turn, but would anyone else be scared of this push when holding two pair on the flop? thanks.

i check raise the flop when you flop a monster...makes more sense..someone will lead in a multiway and you'll define your hand and get more money from them...the problem comes on the turn that there are 4 of you still in the pot and a bad card comes for you....as played the lead on the turn is again inadvisable in my opinion cause someone will bet that and you can then raise them..having said that as played is fine and you have to shove once he raises...if you're beat then its a cooler..but you could have avoided that spot with a check raise on the flop...(they would probably fold 3rd pair with an ace)...

I disagree with this. As I lead out with most top pair, and occasionally second pair hands from the blinds, I like doing this with 2-pair hands as well. I think that check-raising on the flop loses value from all of the hands that beat you. As played, you hand is very well disguised and strong enough to go to showdown imo. If you lost, def cooler.
