A249 rainbow UTG in a full game.

I raise and am called by three unknown people who have position on me.

What should I be thinking and what should I do?

You have a very strong starting hand and I don't think I would ever break it pre-draw or at any point. If one of your opponents ends up with a better hand, it is almost certainly a cooler. If you know at some point that your 9 is no good, you have, at best, 5 outs. I would never consider folding/breaking this hand unless 2 of my opponents who drew were now pat and both were raising.

You should be patting. And hopefully thin the field down on the flop.
And then you should be thinking - sweet Jesus I hope this holds.

You should pat and say to yourself: "I have an above average(way above) Badugi" and then just keep betting and betting and betting; even if someone stood pat, I would still take the initiative and lead. And then if someone raises, grit your teeth and call.

It's really pretty standard.
