I favour the raising, but my major factor in multiway draws is where the other players are.
I am more likely to raise if there has been a check or 2 and then a bet and I am last to act. Technically I am no longer LAST to act but I did start the betting round in position. I am not too worried about a c/r from the first 2 players because of the innate danger of this tactic in a multiway pot.
If I have to act before 2 players have had to do anything, I am less likely to raise. I might be defining my draw, but with the additional risks of multiway pots I am thinking this might be better than the getting caught in the squeeze.
As I am typing this, it is making me think about the concept of absolute position (players between me and button) and relative position (players OOP who get to act after you in abetting round because of a check or a raise).
