I don't get pre-flop. If you're gonna raise because you can, how do you not 4 bet? You could've, right? Whatever reasons you had to raise 3 limpers the first time, only intensify when it comes back around to you for 3-bets. Only if the limpers are tight enough to fold marginal draws if the BB leads into you on the flop. But they don't seem that type if they called two cold ahead of you pre-flop.

As played, I think you can go either way. I doubt BB has an ace, but if he does, you're beat. If one of the limpers has a ten, so what? If they've got a flush draw, great, but that's two less of your suit to beat a better hand.

The more I think about it, calling seems best.

i think calling is the definitely the best play. fold out of the question obviosly on turn, and if you raise you will either knock out an inferior hand or get more action than you're willing to take bye a better hand.

anything but calling is stupid

Can't see much of an argument for anything but calling.

I agree calling is inferior, but I wouldn't go so far as to say it's stupid.

Oops, no. I mistyped mine. I meant to say: Calling is inferior, but I wouldn't go so far as to say raising is stupid.

I mean, raising is probably wrong, but OP is either ahead enough times, or has outs to win enough times to where I don't think it's entirely stupid. I see worse plays than this every day.

choose any option that doesnt include raising or folding

i think you mistyped again? you keep saying calling is inferior. anyway, i agree raising isn't a horrible mistake, but it's just clearly worse than calling, so why do it?
