$5 - JTs turns a flush. Donked it up?

OK it's still early on in the tourney, nobody at the table was really any good, just your usual $5 tourney. But how do I fit into this? Am I a donk aswell? I'd like your critique on this hand please...

Thoughts?

Pre-flop, on the button with a couple of limpers does anybody else limp along here or should it be a fold?

Flop, getting huge odds to call along right?

Turn, does everybody raise it up like me? And who calls and who folds the push...?

pre-
small blinds, 3 limpers ahead, good position i dont see calling as bad

flop-
getting 1/6 odds

turn-
if you're raising to protect against any higher heart draws i agree here as well
youre getting almost 1:2 odds to call with a flush, i cant see anyone folding this

fold pre-flop. the rest of the hand is pretty easy after that.

edit: after you called pf, rest of the hand is standard. i still fold pf though.

your mad. Fold j10s on the button with 6/1 pot odds.

Hero u played it correctly. All that can beat u is kxh or Qxh I would call the push. I would be more afraid of a paired board.

didn't notice that this was a stars sng, so limping probably isn't as bad with the deeper stacks.
