Unless you have reason to believe that SB is specifically probably NOT betting a better eight, I fold to the flop bet. With fewer opponents behind you, my play changes.

From what i've seen of the SB (a very limited amount), he's betting out any piece of the board, flush draw, or straight draw.

Well, here's what I see:

1. The pot is small.
2. You have four opponents, three of whom are yet to act.
3. You have a hand that might be best now, but is extremely vulnerable and is almost entirely unable to improve.
4. You could get pushed around by someone on a draw.

I'm not saying insta-fold. But things are bleak, and even in the best of circumstances (SB bets with anything) your hand isn't hot.
