1) Raise to $45, hope to take it down right then. If one caller, push on any flop if checked to you (bet $105 to win $120 pot).
2) Raise to $20 as a pot-sweetener in position, hope to get called by all limpers, push all-in if you flop any piece of the flop (pair, straight draw (including gutshots), flush draw) and it's checked to you (bet $130 to win $160 pot). Give up if you get bet into and you miss the flop.
3) Limp from button and play your position to win the pot at some point in the hand.
4) Push all in to potentially steal $35 (knowing you are way behind if called).
5) Fold.
