Default I struggle in this spot for some reason

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (6 handed) internettexasholdem.com

CO ($99)
Button ($101.80)
SB ($301.45)
BB ($89.20)
Hero ($98.55)
MP ($8.45)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $5</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">SB raises to $20</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font> Hero?

Villain is solid so far, no PT stats. I know he's playing 8 tables so this is obv a premium hand but are we still shoving here?

i dont play 100nl, but i understand it to have really tight ranges in 3bet situations.....and is 5xbb raises ur norm opener??...if so, push....if not, then u might be playin face up, so folding is now an option....but i still push i think....

an 8tabler is reraising your 5x UTG raise?

this looks like a good time to fold.

wtf raise pot preflop. against a solid multitabler oop his range should be {AQs+, AKo, JJ+ } which you dont fair too well against, but you can either 4bet, call and take a flop ip, or shove. i think calling &gt; folding &gt; shoving.

Calling 20% off my stack PF is hardly the best idea

folding might actually be better than calling but i think shoving is the worst possible idea here. atleast calling we can take a flop ip and continue if we hit. what are your stats / table image?

honestly, at 2/4+ I insta-push here against solid players.
below 2/4 it's a toss-up between fold and push.
