I wouldn't go that far. A prior thread on protecting QQ taught me to be more agressive, and I probably would have gone 5x BB, but keep in mind he's in early position. Making it 5x the BB would of course have increased the amount of your pot-sized bet on the turn, which would have been a good thing as well. But I'm not sure I'd have pushed all-in with that hand.

Home games are a waste of time and energy, the real money is online.

You should have shut down after you got called on the flop. You'd have to put all least one of the callers on a 5. Calling the all-in at the river was a donation, as you were obviously beaten.

i had no choice on the river...i had him covered, there was TONS in the pot just to let it go for an extra 300 chips...i had no choice but to make sure i was beaten. also i was pretty confident in my read that neither of them had the 5, as it was their tendency to bet their good hands.

what about it was played terribly? leading out to a limped pot with 3XBB is a pretty standard play for my style, i like to lead out when i sense people have limped with half decent cards. after the turn came, the two i was playing against had been tending to check when they didnt have a hand, and one guy seemed really disinterested. so i figured i was a head and made a big bet so i could take down that pot right there, assuming my opponents probably had either no chance of winning or they had an overcard to the board (which turned out to be true when i couldnt get him off that J6).
