Default TPTK in huge pot

This hand came up a couple of days ago. The pot got quite big and my question is: Should I have tried to get it bigger or see a cheap showdown?

The reads:
UTG: 40/10/1.6 over 500 hands
MP1: 32/5/2.3 over 750 hands
MP3: 37/1.8/0.4 over 100 hands
Button: 50/7/1.3 over 300 hands

I might have capped the flop and lead the turn. You have a lot of people so raising turn or river can't be bad (might be good), but getting 3-bet/capped sucks

I play it like you did, except that I cap the flop. On the flop button could be 3-betting lots of hands, including a possible value raise with 2 spades.

But when he raised the turn, he's telling you he can beat AK, and probably AJ, since that's what you're representing with the Stop-n-Go, so I'd call down from there.

here is my "read" on their cards.

BB is gonna have a set here which is basically i can have him cold calling with... unless he is a huge tard and cold called AJ and way over played the flop here. Other plays probably have an A or a middle PP.

Wouldn't shock me to see JJ on the river though.

Oh and I play it the same way but I cap the flop here and call down his turn raise.

I'd definetly cap the flop and lead teh turn. This post is sooo huge that capping just makes sense. I wouldn't be surprised if teh button was over playing a lesser ace, but we could also see a set of fives here too. I like the hand though

The hands:

Button had 86 suited for a flush draw
Mp1 had A4
Butto had 46 for a straight draw.

I can't get away from AK here, esp with all the callers. That being said, I doubt you took down the pot.
