No HH available from this site on a 10NL table; if I left any important details please ask. Assume ~100BB stacks all around.
I'm dealt 55 in the SB.
4 limpers, I complete and the BB checks.
Pot is $0.60
Flop 2c5c8d.
I lead for $0.40. BB raises to $0.80. One fold, 3 callers and it comes back to me with a sizable $4.20 pot.
Gotta raise here, but how much? I've got $9.50 left. Just push and probably take it down there? Raise to half my stack and then push the turn?

In my opinion, if you have already decided to play for stacks at this stage then I'd push the flop while you have made your hand and he hopefully hasn't.
If you wait till the turn and it comes a club then you have to make a harder decision if you think he has made his flush since you are looking for the case 5 or a board pair to win.
Pushing the flop with your set gives you the chance to take down a $4.20 pot straight away by taking away his odds to play for the flush, and if he does chase you are still ahead and he has made a mistake.
If however you can put them on 88 then you have a harder decision, hell even if 84 is in their range (and given this is the BB we're talking about) then you have to worry still as an 8 on the turn or river will give them a bigger boat but they are still making a mistake chasing and you want them to call with 2 pair.
Then again, I could be wrong and am sure I'll be corrected if I am

Good spot for a flop reraise push. You will get a flush draw caller or worse so a suckout is definitely likely but you probably have the best hand and the redraw.
No way to spot 88 here so you just have to pay it off if it's present, which most times it is not.

I'd toss out a $4.00 reraise. If *that* many people are chasing that means very few clubs are left. You may get 1-2 callers at $4.00 and everyone should fold at a push. The caveat is, that if you've seen a lot of hands with big pots recently, I'd just push it.
