sorry, posted accidentally..

7th hand here, no solid reads. mp1 had been in a cpl pots already.

sometimes i raise 4bb here, but getting 4 callers is less common these days.

best course of action on flop?

Bet 350-400 and take it from there. If they shove over, fist pump call. If they call, shove the turn. With an overpair and the nut flush draw I am never letting this go.

[Fielmann]

I'd like to bet a smaller amount, like 200-280. We really don't have to worry about draws. And with lots of opponents and a pot that's already quite big we also don't have to worry about not being able to get all the money in.
Betting 200-280 keeps draws in as they think they have the odds to call. It also looks suspicious because people expect us to bet bigger with TP or overpair to 'protect our hand', so they may decide to hang on with a pair or, better, to pick off our 'bluff' with a raise.
Granted, this might be too high a level for $6.5 villains. But I still think that betting close to pot kind of telegraphs our hand and chases too many away.

was lost in thought this hand.

also, if a player is good, if one bets aggressively ie like tai says, this can get action as villain will see it as a bet which is trying to not give correct odds. so this can make them spazz out too. weaker draws, top pair..

after much deliberation (considering a turbo) thinking what was best, i led for about ~250.

utg +1 reraised to 510.. others folded. i have 1160 left, pots at 1240..

call and shove turn, or shove now?

I call and bet half my stack the turn. Something else you could do is minraise again on the flop and hope that he shoves over (he won't fold for another 260), if he calls then you can shove the turn for far less than a PSB.

I would bet bigger on the flop as Tai suggested.
As played I would shove over on the flop, the pot is already big and villian has half his stack in, he might call you with TP here but might freeze if a 4th heart hits the board
