Could you explain your reasoning for this line Gergery?

Checking raising allow a few good things to happen 1) it gets checked around. You’d be ok with this since you get a free card to hit your draw, 2) CO continuation bets and some/all of the 3 people inbetween call/raise. This is good since if you miss you have nothing and if you hit you have a pretty strong hand – therefore more callers are good, 3) CO could fold – unlikely but you’d be happy with that, 4) you and CO get it all in. you’re fine with that since you’re EV neutral to positive vs. his range here.
It also avoids two bad scenarios 1) you hit a great card like an A on the turn and he gets away from his hand, and 2) you catch a bad card on the turn and he puts you to the test when you are a moderate dog but with lots of outs
