Default Re: ATs vs LAG

Isn't the OP better served by leading this flop? Normally I'd take a c/c line HU but not against 3 opponents.
If the hero checks, he risks getting pushed off his hand by a villain bet, and a raise behind. The hero can't 3 bet MPTK OOP against 3 opponents and it sure doesn't make a whole lot of sense to call two cold. Leading is the only rational line to take.
When/if the villain raises, everyone between the villain and the hero are calling two cold.
If the villain calls and it's raised by a LP opponent, the hero can either 3 bet to squeeze the villain, call with the nut BDFD or fold knowing he's playing MPTK OOP in a multiway pot.
