4 flushed - was this pot too big to fold?

With a bet and a call, how often will they both be bluffing?
Was this a good fold?
Should I have bet the river?

I think you should check the flop. After betting the flop you need to check/fold the turn imo. You don't have enough hand here to be betting again into 5 others.

Don't post in MP1 also

A ~15 BB pot with no raises anywhere.. nice table.

I agree with check folding the turn here. I probably bet the flop, too.

I would check-call the flop and check-fold the turn. Huge amount of opponents and "only" top pair no kicker in a dangerous board.

Don't post results so quickly, if ever. And no, the pot is not too big to fold.

If LP bets and you get folds back to you on the flop, would you C/R here to isolate? I struggle with TPNK from the blinds, and have been spewing as of late in these situations. Is it even worth trying to isolate with this many players in?

I'd bet the flop. Check/fold the turn.

Edit: the river is a clear fold.
