Alright, we have a 6 way pot, I limp with 44 and hit a boat on the flop and Im in position. Its checked to me and I check behind feeling that my hand is definitely strong enough to slowplay and that somebody will bet out on the turn with 6 checks on the flop, and if nobody does, then I will bet the turn. Also, there is a flush draw, a hand that I want somebody to hit against my full house so I should give them a free card.

The turn brings a K and the pot is $1.50. BB bets $0.5, MP2 calls, and I raise to $2, they both call.

The converter messed up the river play, here is the raw text:
** Dealing River ** [ 6h ]
BB bets [$5.25].
MP2 folds.
Hero is all-In [$22.40]
>You have options at Table 95490 Table!.
BBcalls [$17.15].

River brings a 6h, completing the flush draw, BB bets about 3/4 the pot and I push, he calls.

Hows my line here? On the flop should I be slowplaying with a 6 way pot or just bet and hope somebody calls?

i usually like betting these pots just enough to keep flush draws in, and then if anyone represents the queen you can go for the kill, i really dont like checking this down cause you lose a lot of value consdiering that anyone who is gonna call your bets after the flop probably at least liked the flop enough to call small enough bets

I'd bet the flop for sure. You want to get money in while people are chasing the flush and you want someone w/ a Q to hang themselves on the turn which you won't be able to do unless you start building a pot.

I wouldn't slowplay "Rags full of Broadways" in multiway pot. Someone with queen may pair his kicker for free and nail you badly.
