Fold Preflop?

If you call and lose, you have 3000 chips. If you call and catch your diamond, you'll have something like 26k.

I don't really know what kind of hand range to put these guys on, but if you give them:

equity win tie pots won pots tied
Hand 0: 35.137% 35.13% 00.01% 194840 38.50 { KdTd }
Hand 1: 32.398% 31.86% 00.53% 176729 2962.50 { 66+ }
Hand 2: 32.465% 31.93% 00.53% 177102 2960.00 { 66+ }

you are slightly ahead.

One of them could have a flushdraw, maybe holding the Ad. I'd probably fold, but I'm really unsure.

Only way a fold is right play is if someone holds AdXd. I think this is a push unlikely to be up against an Ace high FD.

This isn't always true, the nut flush draw shoves because hes getting great odds with all the PF monies in there.

Folding PF would have been better either way.

I do'nt like the call preflop with KT because this is the position you end up with post flop. 60% of your stack is at at stake and you could be drawing completely dead. UTG is marked as a big pair and MP must have a hand to call. Unless you know for sure that they would'nt call preflop MP with the following hands 55 22 or AdQd you should fold, the draw is tempting but it could already be worthless.
