call, you might get a 2nd call (plus you have a very small flush). here the overcall looks likely to win your the most money. however, preflop calling after 2 limpers with 5 high is going to cost you $. the suited connectors like t9s, jts, qjs, also have value in that they can also make top pair. there are not enough players in this pot to come close to giving 54s a positive expectation here.

If the 2 other players are weak and callers I'd call but otherwise I'm leaning toward a raise. I don't see a good player very often checking the turn and river and still overcalling.

Also agree with the preflop muck.

Raise the river it's much more likely the better calls your raise then you get an overcall.

If he's shown any sign at all that he's not a maniac, I fold.
Also, preflop is awefully close isn't it?
