Default What is the best pat hand in PL 5CD you could fold?

This post comes after losing with three pat hands to higher pat hands.
For example: UTG raises 3x the BB. You have AKQJT and reraise to 8x the BB, everyone else folds and UTG puts in another raise to 25x the BB. He's a solid player and has you covered. You call.
Both stand pat. He bets out 1/5 of the pot. You call and he shows down a K-high flush.
Is there a fold in there? Is there a way to play it without losing as much?

Easy fold str8s the worst of the pat hands. If he's solid and you have a solid table image and he's leading out into you he has you beat (either flush or fullhouse).

You can't fold for that betting. He has a worse straight/air/big trips enough predraw to call. His 1/5th pot bet post draw is really weak, getting 6:1 you have to call.

Agreed. No way can you fold to that small bet postdraw. I would probably fold to a 1/2 pot bet or more. But kudos to opponent for successfully milking me for a little more postdraw.
