A $20-$40 game. You limp behind two early limpers with the A-9. The small blind limps. There is $100 in the pot and five players. The flop is: K-9-3, giving you middle pair. It is checked to one of the early players, who bets. What do you do?
Fold. A player who bets into a crowd of four other players should be given credit for a better hand than yours. A king-high flop could easily touch many hands that players limp in with. The two-flush is also a problem. The A may not be an out, or could set up redraws at the river.
