Hero ?

After 18(!) hands all four Villains seem loose, two passive and two aggressive. That said, this didn't strike me as a read-dependent situation.

Any chance of me being ahead of 4 villains after the turn? Does the size of the pot make any difference to my decision?

Bet and see what happens. You may not be ahead often, but the pot is going to be large enough to take another shot at it.

Any observant opponent here is going to bet the hole if you check here. You have to bet out and fold to a raise.

You don't want to bet but its the right thing to do.

Whatever the results, this is a great table to play at. 4 cold calls. Got to love it.

On top of that the bb should have called as well with any two cards.

It was a nice table for about half an hour. Right after this hand I dragged an 18.5 BB pot with AA UI.

Edit: b/f was probably the best line but you could have a problem with a baby Ace calling and giving you a tough decision on the river. If you get 2 or 3 callers and no raise... b/f, c/c or c/f the river?

[Point Blank]

two options ...

bet ... and decide to do whatever if raised

or

check ... and fold

if you check call you are going to showdown (there is no other reason to call) - if you go to showdown in this manner, you will burn the monies (which is illegal, and a punishable offence!)

[neurotiq]

I'd b/f this turn.

[jmitchell42]

i bet call the river, and try to get a read.

Why do you call a raise here? bet/fold unless you already have a read.

[n1_pete]

against 5 i bet the turn and fold if raised.
