I'm a little surprised at the CR haters in this spot but I'll keep an open mind. I am not a CR advocate, PT puts me at 1.3%.

A leadout from the blind into a 7 handed pot with a low board just looks rediculously strong to me with little money in the pot. My thoughts on the CR was to get some money in the pot and then shut down the bigger str8 and flush draws.

Of course the CR looks strong, it's intended to shut down the draws. But at least there would be some extra money in the pot and most of the big hands such as 2 piar, or set aren't getting away most of the time. I also don't want multiple callers getting to see a turn card for cheap.

More often than not your check-raise shuts out everything and you win a tiny pot. Multiple callers won't see a turn card for cheap. You're going to pot the turn. You can still dictate the action with a flop lead you know..

With 5 players left to act there are plenty of chances to see a decent pot. If it's tiny than I probably would have gotten a tiny pot with the lead anyway or busted by a draw.

Multiple callers means an automatic cheap turn card relative to pot odds.
