Default Re: $10-$20, half-kill in a large pot (7 players)

Well, you're almost certainly behind someone with that many people still in the hand. With all that money in the pot, you're not winning with a bet against anyone who can beat 44. I think you're simply going to have to improve to win this pot so I would check it through.

As for the pre-flop raiser having AA or AK and raising you if you bet, why give him the chance? Who are you hoping he'll push out? You don't have any overcard outs to clear up and you'll basically be charging yourself two bets to draw to 4.5 - 5 outs. I don't see a bet here helping in any way to maximize your chances of winning the pot.
