I'd like some responses on how you would play the following hand postflop from a live 1/2 game in AC. I had (or believe I did) I TAG image at the table and the majority of the table had been pretty passive.4 Limpers Hero limps in MP w/ (79s) (not a hand I usually play but figured I'd see flop with 4 limpers in front of me)1 Limp in cutoffButton Raises $10 (fairly new to table but seemed pretty solid from the 20-25 hands I saw him play)Seven Callers ($70)Flop: J 8 10 rainbow (no clubs)Figure range of hands from Button (99-AA, AJ-AK, KQ)How would you play postflop, specifically betting (how much, checking w/intention of raising button, etc)...Pretty deep stacked relative to table ~$450. Button and couple others had ~$200. Any advice much appreciated!!!

Probably lead the flop for like $40-50ish, hope to get raised by the button or one of the other players, and get it all in.

yeah, like he said above me....id lead the flop for about 1/2 to 3/4 of the pot hoping to get raised by someone.

Four limpers checked to me and I bet $20. I wasn't sure how much to bet bc I didn't want to scare anyone off but I wanted to see where I stood. I was immediately raised to $40 from cutoff and button called. So I'm thinking overpair for button (qq?) and either set or two pair for limper, or my worse case, Q9. Now what??? Call the 20 or push right there?

dont like the lead bet cause its too small, but at this point shove.

I try and jam as much as I can. A 1/2 pot bet would be the sweet spot. If you get raised, shove.
