4-tabling a good reg and thought this hand was interesting. Reads are that he 3bets suited crap as well as good broadways. What's the plan here?

In my mind the only play here is to bet / get it in. Folding is not an option and slowplaying here looks pretty bad also since there is loads of bad cards either weakening our hand or scaring the villain.

I dont know the dynamics in 3bet pots during the match so im not sure if he is stacking off with aa / kk (most ppl will at this lvl) and it is highly unlikely we are beat unless you think he slowplays ak/sets here which i cant say but again most people dont. Aq is always geting it in here as wll as kq.

Yeah I don't see many options behind just sticking it in...stacks are awkward for sure though and this turn sucks as the majority of your draws are going to take a freecard here so you are damn near the bottom of your value range.
