I call here...you have 9 outs to the nuts and maybe your A outs are good. Implied odds are ok cuz villain is tight preflop so is more likely to have trouble letting go and nut outs mean sometimes you will be betting a flush over flush when it hits. Finally, he's not overly aggro so you may get a decent price for a turn call as well.

I lead the flop. You have implied odds and you could spike an ace. Another reason is that semibluffs are much more difficult to read. I'm not too sure if the foldequity is big enough 4-way with a slightly coordinated board. If you bet and get 3 callers it's more or less for value. Probably that's not very sound logic so I'm hoping for other answers.

Folding is no option. Why do you play suited aces? So you can make flushes. You can draw cheap and you are closing the action. Plus, you have a stack --&gt; implied odds at this level.
