my main question here is the $15 bet after the flop. play has been pretty passive with very little reraising before or after the flop, but even with the 4 callers i'm 96% sure i'm way ahead on the flop. any comments about my play are much appreciated, but my main question is whether to push, pot-commit myself, or make a smaller bet on the flop. thanks.
