This is a nasty spot.

1) The pot is huge compared to stacks.
2) You have only TPTK in a multiway pot on a drawy board.

I think there is a huge chance you will have the second best hand here, since someone is probably on a flush draw, somebody might have AA, somebody might have a set or a OESD.

Betting here commits you, crai is too much I feel, c/f is
too weak.

I am curious what other people say.

Leading the flop is of course another option, but I think this is okay too. Someone is probably going to bet on that board.

Obviously, you could easily lose this hand no matter what you do, but in a pot that already has 55 BB in it, you are committed at this point, even versus Button (the one other player with a full stack).

Edit: You know, I would hate it so much if this checked through that I'm starting to think open-pushing is really the thing to do.

Lead on the flop and try and get your money in

is this better/worse than bet/call? i was mostly curious about that. i think people are shoving their shortstacks in with wider ranges than they are calling with, but it doesn't seem to matter too much either way.
