I'd bet the flop. With tens, free cards are not our friends.

With 5 people in the pot with a capped preflop, I think you can be confident that someone has paired a king or an ace. Fold to any bet here.

This looks like the type of hand where a really LP-P hit an ace with a low kicker but isn't willing to bet it on the flop fearing they're beat by a better kicker or two pair or a set. I'd bet the flop, but then slow way down for the rest of the hand and fold to two bets. The pot's real big though, so it's to fold to just a single bet on the turn. I don't know about the raise on the turn though - even a maniac could have a good hand, and a non-bet turn is threatening. Good thing he folded.

If you count the backdoor straight draw. He's got odds to call a bet on that flop.

Anyway. Bet the flop. fold to a raise. Otherwise, I think your line here is good.

The raise on the turn was to knock out any gutshot draw (QJ); or force them to call incorrectly. Reactions?

Did you take a look at how big the pot is on the flop? Folding to a flop bet would be wrong.
