Let's say your CO/BTN and you hold a very good potential hand Ax/Kx suited, two broadway, small pocket pair, 67o+, and you have two to three limpers in front, do you still iso or do you limp behind? If you iso raise you'll probably get at least 1 caller 75% of the time.

What stakes? Theres no reason to iso with most of those hands, limping is much better.

iso with all of those except 67o+. If it was 67s+ then probably

also, as always, it depends on who the limpers are. Definitely somewhat stats dependent

if you call along, most likely you have to play fit / fold post flop with so many players in the pot. this is not too bad as your hand is usually very well disguised if you hit a monster.

if you squeeze over so many limpers, you should expect at least one caller; more if the original limper calls. this is fine if you think you have superior post flop skills i guess. it's all player dependent i guess. and also your table image. if you've been aggro, obviously you will get called more often and probably get floated post flop as well....

Really depends on the hand, I rather iso with 2 broadway cards or some offsuit hand then with Axs and/or suited connectors.

Reason being that the iso-hands should play better headsup while the others can play nice multiway. AXs is borderline btw, depends on the situation if I iso or limp...
