Default Re: Big Multi-way Pots w/ Big Draws for me: What\'s your line? 3 Hands

Fold all 3 out of position to the preflop raiser.

Short of that, I'd say:

Hand 1: Raise to $50, fold to a push from either player unless the preflop raiser pushes and the UTG calls. Then you might as well play a 3-way huge pot with your draw. The problem here is that UTG either has a set/two-pair or he's semi-bluffing with a higher draw. He might even have JT, in which case you only have flush outs.

Hand 2: Bet $15 and hope to take it down. If you get a caller and checked to you on the turn, then take a free card. Bad luck, though, if you get a chaser with a higher flush draw.

Hand 3: Bet $30 and be willing to go all the way with it. Here's your hand vs a AA or AQ

You're a little worse off if villain has a single big spade.

Your also way behind a set, if MP has 66 or 33.

A big pot 3-way might be AsAx, a set of 6s and you:

Here you have a 3:1 shot.
