Flat Or Shove Flop?
http://www.boomplayer.com/poker-hands/Boom/6115231_1B3CC1D127
Not worried about player 4.
Figured player 5's range to be 910, Jx, 44, 88
Any thoughts on what the best line is here?

I think this is a well played hand.
for the 1st time ever, i have to disagree with sam. we are flatting with zero plan of further action, besides fold. how often do we really expect the rest of the action to go check/check on the turn and river with and 2 other players in the pot. w/o being results oriented, it seems like an easy open preflop...and then a fold to the 3 bet on the flop. we can never expect to be good/ or way ahead of 2 villians in this spot, with this hand, on this board. FOLD THE FLOP and preserve our chips imo.
I fold to the raise on the flop and move on, don't see a positive outcome on further streets
I think it's a tough spot. I think I agree with Mike and Rovo; folding the flop is probably best. I think I'd argue that shoving is better than calling; the lead out means basically nothing, and if player 5 has 44 or 88, I would think they'd flat this and hope you'd hit your Jack and start building the pot for them. As played, I think player 5 mostly has JT or J9, maybe T9, sometimes QJ and I'd be worried about KJ and maybe even AJ. Tough spot though, and I don't think you're getting called by much / anything that you beat, so probably best to just fold. So close though, that I'm pretty sure I'm jamming KJ.
