Default And the Borg shall play too...Can you help em???Please?!?lol

Code:
For those of you not familiar with star trek. The Borg is a race of cyborgs that work as a group, to accomplish task. Think human ants/bees linked in the brain. lol
The last few hands were sort of fun. So I thought we would play one as a group, and see if we can't win the hero some loot.

No upfront info. We're basically Fergusson in the fridge.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (8 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver Cards)

UTG (t4255)
UTG+1 (t1270)
MP1 (t1078)
MP2 (t9710)
CO (t270)
Button (t1342)
Hero (t3015)
BB (t2150)

Preflop: Hero is SB with , .
1 fold, UTG+1 calls t100, MP1 calls t100, 3 folds, Hero

Ok, based on ur input. We're going to make a reluctant call. Any action we're gone.
Hero completes, BB checks.

The Flop comes: (t400) , , (4 players)
Hero ???

Let's be frisky on irish suggestion: lol

Hero bets t100, BB folds, UTG+1 folds, MP1 calls t100 (Oh crap, )

Turn: (t600) (2 players)

Again on irish's suggestion: (Hope irish is getting a rakeback on this. lol)
Hero bets t400, MP1 raises to t878, Hero calls t478.


River: (t2356) (2 players)

Final Pot: t2356

MP1 shows

Well what's the hero going to do & why? Even though it might seem obvious to some. Your obvious answers might not be someone else's obvious answer.

So let's see how the group does..

Well if the opponents had a deeper stack, I'd think about calling, but they've only got ~10BB each!

You are getting 7 to 1 including the BB, I would call and get away if the BB went crazy.

If I flopped the monster draw, two pair, or trips I would shove, if I missed I would check/fold.
(well, maybe not shove, but I would check/raise and be aggressive.)
only 8 people left, and potential to knock 3 out in 1 hand, adding over 4k to your stack, in a perfect world, nh.

So we have to:
1. Flop a monster (draw)
2. Hope all 3 opponents go allin
3. We win from our draw.

Sorry but OOP with BB still to act, short stacks, not for me

Default i call...

if i read this right, I call, since I got 50 in there to start on sb, and i pray that bb has a bad hand and calls, so an extra 50 to see a flop... why not, after that if i don't get trips or a straight, then i fold...

If bb goes for the kill, i leave, as i probably took more than 50 from him before, and i hope to take more later...

probably not the best move to make, as i might just be feeding an aligator my stack...

So, now I would like to ask, what is the best move here?

Heads up, or 3way I might consider repping the ace, as it is, 4way, more than likely at least one of them has a higher pair to the flop, maybe 66-88, possibly even a set :/ We've never getting a villian off Ax here on the flop.


Sooooo, I'm check folding this flop.

So let's see how the group does..
Now remember if you say raise. How much??? Why???

Our player rides on the short bus, so they need all the help they can get. lol.
