    since the pot is 4-way, I would not even bother betting the flop.

    I like to make it 100 preflop (4x BB plus 1x BB for the limper). Otherwise, I agree with drmcboy, no point betting the flop when there are three opps seeing the flop with you.

    With 2 opps cbetting seems ok. This kind of flop (rainbow with 1 high card) are perfect for cbetting. Against 3 opps I dont like cbetting tho, you get called too much

    I wouldnt CB the flop as it is a 4 way pot. check/fold.
    Pre flop is good.
