How easy is this? I'm pretty sure I know the "correct" thing to do, but somebody (or somebodies) tell me so I can sleep well tonight.

Well the A is the scare card, in a pot with that many players I'm pretty sure someone has one.

It might be something like A/rag so they don't wanna bet it.

I don't think you have to worry about hte straight so much due to the fact you hold 2 of the kings.

It's a rough spot.

Believe it or not, we probably have the best hand, and if we don't we still have about 4 outs.

Bet. You may have the best hand, and have 4 outs if not. (Plus 2 to a 10 out draw.) You'll also gain a free card on the turn if you want to take it.

so, you saying we want to bet for value?

This isn't correct; there's a 60% chance that someone has an ace, even if they're holding any two (and with 7 to the flop they may as well be).

I still bet out, but I'm half expecting a checkraise.

(edit: calculated for 5 opponents instead of six, making life even worse)

Bet. You might bump into a check-raise from an ace, or a check-call from an ace, but you're also going to get looked up by queens and maybe even some jacks because of the pot size.

Re: KK Flops Everything But in Multiway Pot
 

I'd bet. You have the best hand here a lot of the time.
