I don't know the dynamics of the table, so I'm asking this question with little to no information. Why check your option here? I'd be putting in a raise pre-flop to thin the field. You don't want to go into a flop against 3 others.

Ask yourself (Pre-Flop):
"Why you want to keep this many players in pre-flop"
"What are the advantages of raising pre-flop"
"Would I rather try and set mine against fewer opponents"

I understand you're looking to set mine here, and it's cheap, but you're only going to hit 1 in 7 times. If it was against a single opponent, the check is fine, but against multiple opponents, it's not too much more expensive to put in a raise and get speculative hands out because those hands can be very well disguised on many boards, making your hand extremely vulnerable.

Then, based on the betting, I like that you led out, but you bet far too much on the flop. You could bet half pot and still (likely) end up with the same result behind you. Then you ended up risking your entire stack on a board that completely misses your hand.

I'm curious as to how it ended up.

Checking pre is fine here. 77 isn't a hand we want to bloat a large pot out of position with.

Lead is questionable, snap folding when villain re-raises here. I struggle to find what worse you're getting to call by jamming here and the re-raiser never raises worse here (maybe 53/56).
