I don't bet here. Against so many opponents things always go wrong.
Check and maybe call a small bet.

Bet 100 and re-evaluate on the turn. You probably have the best hand, but a lot of cards hurt you. Bet 100 and hope the button folds so you have position on the turn and river. I would never check from this position.
