I don't think I was clear enough about the fact that a raise to 300 had previously been getting most of the table to fold.

Preflop is fine but if it's still in rebuy period I'd raise more.
I'd just c/f flop when up against that many players.

300 had been getting a bunch of folds early in a $3 rebuy? How strange. Most of the time in one of those, you could just open-shove preflop and get a call or two. In a rebuy like this, I'd check/fold the flop. If you'd gotten one or two callers there's a chance that none of them has an ace. With 5 callers, somebody's got the ace, and they're never, never, never folding it. If you're going to bet, half-pot is fine. It accomplishes everything that a pot-sized bet would. You'll either fold out everybody (unlikely, but possible), or you'll get looked up by somebody with an ace (and quite possibly somebody with something ridiculous). As played, absolutely fold the river. I think there's zero chance you're good any more. Somebody's got an ace, and the 4 just filled a couple of straight draws as well.

Yea not to jock everyone else but when im in a 3.30 i'd say 5 times is the standard. You can push and get called by just about anything you can think of but either way you were gonna be screwed because A anything is calling you in these. For future reference though theres always players like me there just trying to get some chips with anything suited and gapping in these things.

Play same preflop, check fold flop oop. Against 1 or possibly 2 opponents I might bet, but not 5.

Still in rebuy period? Shove preflop and click "auto rebuy"
