Default $3.40 BB hits TPbk . Scary board w/ 2 villains

Just curious the best line in these types of circumstances.
Villains are pretty laggy and do not fold to small pot-sized bets if they limp in most of the time.
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t400 (5 handed) internettexasholdem.com

Too risque/stupid to attempt anything with a healthy chip stack and a dangerous board. Agreed.

Just want to see if its stupidity check folding this or if I should have made a stab at it.

Why not shove this for value at the 3.40s? Taking this pot down will give us a 2 to 1 chip lead over the two shorties, and we rate to get called by a very wide range of hands that TP plays very well against.

BTW - I would play this differently in a 27 or 60.

I think I would rather check/call than open push this flop. You'd get more value out of worse hands/bluffs. But check/fold is probably best.

Check/call might be the worst line imo. There are too many cards that can come that you don't want to see. Either use all of your fold equity and push now, or do what I would prefer here and check/fold.
