UTG V1: $184
UTG+1 V2: $180
hero: $750 BB
UTG limp
UTG +1 limp
2 more limpers
hero makes it $24 in the BB with AQss'
they both call
2 folds
flop: $80
KT4ss
I generally like to check my A high fds, especially when playing deeper so I have some FDs in my checking range, betting doesn't accomplish too much either as I still have decent SDV and can improve to tp/2nd pair.
Hero checks
V1 checks
V2 bets $20
CRAI? pot is around $100

Just bet/call the flop, even shipping all in on the flop is an ok option
Villains are only 60bb deep
As played you have to cr because of the sizing

yes check raising all-in is best here, you have good fold equity against all pairs even Kings and you have good equity if called with nfd and a gutshot. i really think calling is a bad idea and any other raise too.

In a lot of cases I would opt just to see a flop preflop, but this is one of those cases where I'd raise, mainly because a lot of the limpers stacks are so small and we can just play TP ABC poker and not get outplayed postflop OOP if we we flop it. I like our sizing (taking it down preflop is fine, otherwise we've easily gotten in enough of stacks to commit with TP postflop).
With these stack sizes, I'm either/or on the flop. With only about a ~1.5 PSB left, I probably just lean to an open shove (good hand equity, an open shove should have good FE against certain hands like small pairs). But if any of these guys are stabby, I don't mind a check/shove either. As played, trivial shove at this point for me.
