it sounds like your hand is bad enough to pass.

This was what I first thought when I read your hand. I instamuck.

i think some people in this thread are way underestimating how bad of shape a many-card hand can be in. sure it feels like you have a million ways to win, but your opponents are going to have just as many ways to have you dominated. for an incredibly rough idea, try some 6-way preflop all-in matchups in twodimes with 3 pretty junky hands against 3 pretty good hands and see how often the junky hands win.

i definitely think that the OP should pass.

I wouldn't call a 3-way allin without a 5 and T; 3 cards out of 6,7,8,9; 1 face card; 2 aces (assuming you have a matching flush card with them); and no 3 of a kinds.

Obviously, I have no idea what I'm talking about, but I imagine they'd be willing to push almost any hand, so I'm looking for decent hands to go in with. When I'm playing a game I don't know much about, I try to find a decently strong hand that has a good edge over cards my completely oblivious foes would be playing, especially for a 3-way all in.
