JJ gets 5 way action

[cardsfan04]

This is early in level 2. My VP$IP was 0 until the hand immediately before this when my JJ doubled through MP1's AT on a T-high flop.

PF, I wanted to raise to protect, but also give myself the opportunity to iso shove if MP1 limp raised me. He had 395 behind, so I raised 180 (210 total). Should I even be considering this when making my raise? Do you raise this at all.

Flop, I really didn't like seeing 4 callers or the overcard that flopped. Should I be check/folding this flop? Is that too weak/tight? I led out to see where I was at. When I was smoothe called by the first player, a set seemed pretty likely. If not, I was still probably beat, so check/folding the turn was pretty obvious.

Do you play this any differently? Do you use the same thinking as me?

This all looks pretty good, though i'm tempted to say just c/f flop vs 4 other players and hands like KQ/QJ/AQ/QT are all over peoples limp+call ranges. Yea i think just c/f flop.

I wouldn't bet AK on that flop 5 way, and I wouldn't bet JJ either.

Your rationale for your pf raise size (so that you can reshove over shorties limp-shove) is very important and I think that it is something that a lot of good players neglect to consider.

As played I agree with c/f on the flop. Don't feel entitled to the pot just because you have JJ. You are not going to bluff with the best hand in a 5 way pot enough to make it +ev

Def c/f flop.
