All players in the hand are losing players and can have a very wide range of hands (all have above 25% VPIP). The player pot betting is a big losing player according to sharkscope, but I havent got hand stats on him.

Calling is obviously not done. I Pushed the hand because I figured he'd have a high Ace trying to protect its hand from flush-draws. But with the amount of players involved in the pot, I think I shouldve folded due to the increased chance of somebody having a flush/set.
Would the situation change with only 3 players in the hand?

the pb is that you are 268 to see the flop and now the possibility that someone flopped the flush is major imo.

I might call and fold if he bets again on the turn but actually folding might be better.

I generally fold preflop but that might be a leak. Postflop I'd play it the same way against a villain as described. I have a hard time putting him on a flopped flush; a big loser would seldom pot it on the flop but slowplay or whatever. He will most likely have a flushdraw or a high A in whcich case you are a good enough favorite. As for the other players in the hand I'm not too concerned with opponents flopping flushes, but may be I should.

Only problem is that if he has an ace with a diamond kicker &gt; 6 you are a slight underdog and you're not a big favorite over anything but a bare ace with no FD. I would actually fold this flop and not feel bad about it. Also if he is loose/bad that puts more suited trash hands into his range making a flush more likely.

Yeah you're right I guess that makes it closer if not a fold.
