Well I like to raise this one pre. Checking surely is plus ev but raising vs this guys should be better for max ev. On the flop I just bet more like 2/3 or even less because you block some flushed and str8 draws are pretty unlikely. On the turn I would continue betting and call as played due to the odds for trips and 2 pair. Checking is also an option because 2 callers on the flop are enough strength to check for pot control the turn. On the river I just c/f mway vs 2 players. Your bet small for beeing a block bet which is 1/3ps

Out of position I wouldn't mind the check. if you raise you only making the pot bigger and I doubt all limpers will fold often enough to win right away. As played I would bet the turn around 8bb with 1 passive player still in the hand. As played I would check to the raiser on the river. I doubt a block bet will work enough and there aren't to many weaker hands that would min/raise multi way on the turn I think.

Cheers,
