Your move?

[lastchance]

Raises to t300-t400, and is all-in on any flop.

somewhere in the neighborhood of 350 sounds about right, and getting it in on the flop sounds good too. 3uo

[brer]

Any thoughts on putting all the chips in right there?

i think that's my move here brer, i'd be really suprised if you didn't get a caller. you don't want to see a 5 way flop here with a lot of money still behind you. my guess is several of these guys have pocket pairs, and your push may very well look like AK.

[FishBurger]

I'd either make it T500 and push any flop or push allin preflop. A push allin preflop may be best because your opponents obviously like their hands but may get scared by the flop. So you may have a better chance of stacking at least one of your opponents by pushing allin preflop.

Yeah, I like a bigger raise..400+ then AI on the flop.

I like this line alot. The raise to 100 and having 1500 chips is kinda borderline though. I like to make the move (on partypoker) with a raise to 100-150 and having 900-1100 chips. With 1500 chips, I'd like the raise to be to at least 150, but with a caller here, you will still get action enough times that I like this move. People just can't lay down KK or QQ here, and will call with hands like AK, AQ, or even middle pocket pairs sometimes.

It would depend slightly on the amount of PF action so far, but 400 sounds good. Ideally, it has been a loose PF betting table. If that is the case, I would scale it up to about 700, hoping for one caller.
