H: MAWW. Playing fairly tight. Have played with a few of these guys before, but it's been a while. Not doing anything out of line.
V1: YWG. He's a regular whom I recognize. Decent player. Puts on a lot of pressure. In another hand he 3bet me pre-flop. I flopped top two (AQ) w/ redraw to straight and he called my shove with a wrap (board had two spades; he had none). I had only ~$500 at the time.
V2: YWG. New to PLO. Playing almost anything and calling with non-nut draws. Running well, though.
Both Vs cover.
I (~$800 effective) raise to $15 in MP with AhJhJsTs.
Four callers.

I pot for $80. My husband directly to my left flats. He has a flush draw or a straight draw but nothing to the nuts in my opinion.
Agree with Alpha. They are never folding if you raise another $300 anyway. Save the $300 if the board pairs. If not put it in to any bet.
The only reason in this spot to raise with no fold equity in my opinion is if you know one of the other two V's would also be all in and you like to run it twice and know they will also agree to run it twice. Then there might be a case for getting it in on the flop and running it twice. Doesn't change your equity but cuts your variance and in a multi-way pot you still make $ even if you end up chopping with one of the other villains.
your call might also induce your husband to follow along with inferior draws, there's no need to reopen the action and possibly push one of the villains out, you want as many callers as possible with your hand

you have no fold equity over people with 400 already in the pot and you have the nfd and gutter to the nuts so you don't want those behind you with worse draws to fold. you either hit or you don't.backdoor fd and backdoor broadway draw is nice as well.
