Is this the right move?

On the turn i feel like im all in or in check/call possibly fold mode. People at this level will call with just overcards to pot bets, they'll call with draws no matter what the pot is. however someone could've hit a set or two pair considering people may have called with anything. Or maybe even QQ. What's your move here?

The worst thing is, I think he played it correctly.

The preflop raise is ridiculous, but you want to play against only a few opponents. You got that.

Once the pot is that big on the flop, you are tied to it, and any bet commits you.

If we change the stack sizes, a pot size flop bet is called for, but since that's more than half your chips... even if you are raised you will be getting laid good odds to call.

You didn't make a mistake... but playing this way in a cash game will lead to some interesting variance.

How does the hand change if you, for example, raise to .5 preflop instead of $1?
Then you can make a $2 flop bet without completely committing yourself, while still forcing your opponents to make an incorrect decision if behind.

In low stakes people often recommended raising this much, 10 times the big blind or more because of the complete looseness of all the players even this raise won't get everyone to call with only good hands. so this raise or more is necessary. thank you for answering, i just wanted to know if the all in was correct.
