UTG calls t60 (pot was t90), UTG+1 calls t60 (pot was t150), MP1 calls t60 (pot was t210), 2 folds, Hero calls t30 (pot was t270), BB checks.

Hero checks, BB bets t240, 3 folds, Hero??

BB is a pretty good player. He isnt betting K7 or A3 here. 89 or a FD could be possible though.

Easy CRAI as played? Should I have bet out though?

I dont like to lead this flop into a field of 5 because if you get called its difficult to know where you stand and you are playing the rest of the pot OOP, also if you get raised you have to lay it down and then you just spewed those chips. I like to save for push/fold time

I think you either take scottys advice or bet out about 200 and see what happens. As played I fold. If you think you're ahead the only thing you can do is push. When someone in the blinds leads out, I'm very suspicious since they can have ATC. I'm aggressive post flop, so I lean towards leading out for 200 and shutting down to resistance.

I just fold. BB checkt in and can hold any hand like random 2Pair, Set, Flushdraw, AT ...
No need to gamble chips with a marginal hand early.

fold this sooo fast
if he is "good" hes not betting anything that you are ahead of here aside from a huge draw (which you may not even be ahead of)

if he is good id put his range on 2pr or a big draw like 4s 6s or 8s 9s

therefore CRAI is a really bad option
just let it go
