Check, try to hit a turn.
I am overlimping pre because getting 3b or limp raised is a bad result and this hand is mediocre anyways.
Checking mostly because it's 6 ways. Hand features may be worth betting in a shorter field.
I'm ok with playing raise or fold pre because it tends to build the pots we win well past the (assumed very high) rake cap. Limping in a very mw time game is fine.
6 way I think you have to check and try to see a free card. Get jammed on too often not in great shape.

Pretty much always limping this behind with these stacks but I play in time games usually. If rake is 5-6 can probably limp also and if itβs 7-8 with jackpot drop or something I just fold.
The thing about raising a hand like this to 30 is our hand kinda isnβt strong enough as you see on this exact board when we go 4+ to the flop and we are almost never getting the limpers to fold. Also in these types of games we can often get $400 effective in by the turn or river in a limped pot as well
I thought this hand was always a open with decent position in CO.
Anyhow I ended up cbetting 85.
Btn calls(covers us)
BB (fish) ships for 175.
HJ ships for 300ish.
Hero???? Are we committed now???

This spot is horrible and itβs somewhat likely someone has a better made hand and someone has a better flush draw. Not sure what to do with such a great price, I think we should still fold.
Definitely folding. You are likely dominated now and someone has a better flush draw. You are most likely drawing to a 10 only at this point.
