Re: Huh?

All that being said, sure, I might need to improve to win the hand, but there's a good chance that I'm in the lead. And even if I get raised, isn't that what I want? Bet the best hand and make the draws pay? What's your alternative? Checking in hopes that it doesn't get raised is asking for a bit much. Then what are you going to do if it does get raised? Fold?

You think middle pair is the best hand in a 5 way pot with an UTG raiser and some cold callers? I like your bet if and only if you are fairly certain UTG will raise making the field call 2 cold to continue. I prefer to play this hand check call if it's only 1 bet back to me and see what happens on the turn. I would fold this hand if it comes back 2 or more bets. You have too much of a hand fold for 1 bet and too little of a hand to bet out.
Just my 2 cents.
