What do we discard if we...

...check?
...raise and get 1 caller behind?
...raise and get just the SB as a caller?
...raise and everyone calls?

Probably check. I'm definitely raising AA and KK here. I probably draw 3 in any situation, but I wouldn't be surprised if drawing 1 to the straight is as good or better 5 way.

Check, draw 3.

I think that's pretty bad, unless utg serial limps two pair/trips, he most likely has a pair lower than AA, or a draw. You have the best hand a decent percentage of the time, you want to thin the field and make the hand playable post draw.

yeah i think its a bit weak too

i find at the lower limits there are a plethora of players who will open limp or over limp with 2 pair and they dont like to throw them away at least certainly not pre-draw

i'm not sure raising pre-draw and buying 3 is going to help the post draw dramas - if i can be near certain that i have the best hand pre-draw then i wouldnt use my very crappy position as an excuse not to raise
