Re: To jam or not to jam
On third street, I would just call the initial bet. I'd prefer multi-way action with a hand like this. Since you raised and got a bunch of callers, when the other guy three-bets, I think you have a cap. Now it could be that seat 1 has three spades, which wouldn't be good for you, but he probably shouldn't be playing a hand like that for two bets. If he's playing that for two bets, he's probably playing other hands he shouldn't for two bets, so I wouldn't worry about it that much.
On fourth street, I would welcome a lot of action and I would be tickled pink if I raised and everyone folded. I can't think of anything bad that would come from raising. If you knock everyone out, maybe the bring-in will bust and you can scoop with something stinky like a pair of Tens. If people call along with garbage (sure looks like garbage), you've got a sizable amount of equity. Get your money in there.
