Vs a super passive table 5 ways i prefer check more than bet because they are just going to have so much 8x in range when they are limping stuff as low as 85s and up plus A8o.
Why would you wanna gii by the river with TPTK in a 5 way pot? We started with 150 BB's. If someone calls a hp cbet and a hp turn bet I would happily roll over my hand otr (depending on the runout).
Yes, someone can have an 8 but it shouldn't be a reason to give up the betting or c/f (it wasn't a limped pot, they limp/called 17). Also there are sticky players in the mix who should call with worse or even ace high.
