Do you honestly think the other two limpers are both going to call a huge all-in reraise? I'd expect a maximum of one of the limpers to call if Borax called, and even that is unlikely. And the sidepot isn't really an issue, the idea is that just calling may significantly increase the size of the main pot which Borax is a big favorite to win.

In this situation, I'd either reraise all-in, or call and hope a dominated hand comes in, and then move in on the flop, leaning slightly more towards the latter approach. There really isn't a whole lot of risk in "allowing" another player into the pot (as if the other player's all-in doesn't prohibit most hands from seeing the flop anyways), but there is a lot of potential for gain.
I meant his only choice was to push. If he just calls, he allows the others to come in behind him for a 4 way pot, with money behind and a dry side pot. He's commited to any flop and he's just running a bigger risk. The safe route is to push.
