I'm still working on how to play these big pots with a marginal hand. But I'm sure on the flop you either want to 3-bet and try to get it heads-up or fold, depending on who is raising.

With the pot as big as it is post-flop, I disagree with the consensus and think you want to just call the flop and raise the turn. Raising the flop doesn't give enough firepower to push anyone out, and it just builds the pot that much bigger, trapping you in it if you hit any piece of it and making it harder to get the draws out with a turn raise.

Even when you get your pair, it's tough to be caught in the middle of a raising war that you aren't waging. You want to see a showdown for another 2BB, but not another 6.
