What's your turn play?

I think I am raising more PF here

I raised to 5BB's that should be sufficient.

the thing I don't like is by betting so big on the flop, you are committing yourself to betting very big on the turn

Agreed.

Very poor pot control in this hand.

It could be, but 5BBs isn't what it used to be as far as FE (which I think all PF raises MUST have).

Raising 7BB here though would follow my rule of thumb:

Since it is generally accepted that you open-raise 3BBs with 1.5BBs in pot, it follows that you should raise 2 x 3.5 = 7BBs with 2.5BBs already in pot.

Not sure how much merit there is to that rule of thumb, but I've found that helps me quickly figure out how much to raise when there are, say, 6 limpers to me.
