I normally don't play this hand but thought I would limp and see the flop since it was early. I know that the flop better was trying to drive out flush draws, and that is the dilemna.

BB could have a lot of hands. Since the pot is only 80, and you still have someone to act behind you, a fold is in order. You would be drawing to a 1 card flush, and only the 3rd nuts.

There's really no point in discussing this, its a clear fold preflop, and not even close.

But, since you asked, fold the flop. You're getting 2-1 odds on an at best 4-1 shot.
