Voted to RRAI. This is a limped pot so hero could actually be behind, though more likely ahead against a draw on this board. Calling gives the v a chance to draw-out, so you want a guarantee of seeing 2 cards if called.

I originally thought CALL with the idea of getting it all in on the turn, but given the draw-haeavy nature of the flop, probably best to get it in now, and put V to a decision.

Shove it now. Getting low on chips and with a draw heavy board = not the time to slow play a middle set.
What does villain want you to do in this spot? I think his bet says he wants a call or fold.

If you dont reraise all in you shouldnt be playing poker. Go ahead and tell me BB may have 4,5 and I’ll verbally slap you for even thinking it. So what if they have, the fact is the percentages are you will win more than lose in this spot and thats all what counts.
