    Default TPWK OOP multiway, whats the correct play?

    Sorry I'm sure this is obvious but I didn't know how to proceed. I've seen the flop because I'm getting silly odds but having hit TP I am first to act with 5 opps and possible str8 draw. Is this a case of reversed odds biting me since I may already be behind and if not people might well draw out on me? Should I check or is betting out a better play? Table is slightly loose. Thanks if anyone can help my dumbass

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (8 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    MP2 ($4)
    CO ($3.35)
    Button ($6.25)
    Hero ($9.85)
    BB ($9.85)

    Preflop: Hero is SB with 5, K. UTG posts a blind of $0.10. MP2 posts a blind of $0.10.
    UTG (poster) checks, UTG+1 calls $0.10, 1 fold, MP2 (poster) checks, CO calls $0.10, 1 fold, Hero completes, BB checks.

    Flop: ($0.60) K, 9, J (6 players)

    Fold pre-flop despite your silly odds. Play it if it's suited or it's KTo+. Your dead-on about reverse implied odds. I would c/f this flop. If it check around, you can take a stab on the turn.

    Don't put alot more money in!! (duh). I sometimes lead here - first to act is not as bad as stuck in the middle with this many players - but that's when my table is super weak on the flop (i.e.,. they will not float or call with gssd rarely semi-bluff, etc.)

    This flop is pretty horrid though. I would certiainly c/f if there were 2 suited cards out.

    Folding pre-flop is probably best as well.

    quoting Bob Ciaffone: "NL is a game of position and implied odds, not 'save here save there' ".

    Fold PF.

    You won't fo far from perfect, when you will check/fold everything from blinds that didn't flopped at least bottom 2 pair or strong draw in multiway pot. In blind wars it's decent hand, multiway OOP it's junk.

    Ok thanks guys, I checked the flop, saw a pot sized bet and a call and folded. Just checking I didn't play too weak. I'll just let it go pf next time.
