I think this was a good fold, but I'm not positive. I called pf because the whole table called. I dont think c/r can really be good because its turning my hand into a bluff most of the time. His range preflop is pretty wide, and I think when he raises the flop his range is like AQ,AK,TT-AA,QJ, and a few other random hands.
Anyone propose a different range or think check/call is good or any other suggestions?

squeeze preflop
A Handicapped parking sign does not signify that this spot is for handicapped people. It is actually in fact a warning, that the spot belongs to Chuck Norris and that you will be handicapped if you park there.

Stacks of all these players makes this a perfect squeeze spot.

As played, lead/fold is fine. It's pretty impossible to get allin more than slightly ahead here. Calling is out of the question as if you flat, almost any turn will lead you to make big big mistakes oop, and he'll have monster equity whatever he has that you'd be giving a free card to.
Squeeze or fold preflop every time I'd say.

As played I think maybe a check/raise could be better.
By betting here you have to pretty much fold to any raise unless he's really crazy. I think leading your hand is turning it into a bluff, whereas a check/raise line looks much stronger (but also turning your hand into a bluff as you say).
Looking at villain's range though, there aren't a lot of hands he should be folding here (if your range is accurate).
I think both leading and check/raising are fine, but the hand is definitely a fold. His play indicates he isn't folding so I don't have any dramas with it.

c/r is much much better for the reasons panda gave.
