call that flop bet. With this board this is a small hand, want a small pot. Reevaluate on turn. My 2 cents.

Edit:This has potential to be a good hand, but you don't want the pot to get out of control before that point with TPGK on this kind of board.

I think you are behind here more often than not. I'dd check-call the flop.

I don't particularly like playing KQo oop against 3 or more people. I would have just called the flop, as played calling the shove is spew with this flop, who is pushing here? JJ, KK, TT, QQ (probably not), AA, AK, AQ all except for the Q's have you beat. Your getting a little less than 3-1 to make this call assuming button folds which at this point I'm thinking it might be 50/50. What cards can come that will help your hand that won't help someone else?

just call the flop bet. the board is way to wet to try to push people around. i want to get to showdown as cheap as possible here. im folding the turn if i dont hit a non club stright to a pot sized bet. our hand isnt that strong with this flop texture

I don't like a push here... most of the time your behind... if the initial raiser pushing back.
