 Villain just sat down, no reads. Judging by his stack size, he's probably a donkey.

Turn is kinda awkward since a push is over pot size. But any raise commits me. I know money is kinda shallow but pot is limped so it plays deeper.

Thoughts on the hand? Advice all streets welcome.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (9 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

UTG ($103.05)
UTG+1 ($103.15)
MP1 ($127)
MP2 ($119.90)
MP3 ($48.50)
CO ($75.80)
Button ($197.40)
Hero ($146.20)
BB ($99.40)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 7, 9.
1 fold, UTG+1 calls $1, 2 folds, MP3 calls $1, CO calls $1, 1 fold, Hero completes, BB checks.

Flop: ($5) K, 3, 8 (5 players)
Hero checks, BB checks, UTG+1 checks, MP3 checks, CO checks.

Turn: ($5) A (5 players)
Hero bets $4.75, BB folds, UTG+1 folds, MP3 raises to $11, CO folds, Hero raises to $145.2, MP3 calls $36.50 (All-In).

River: ($197.70) 3 (2 players, 1 all-in)

Final Pot: $197.70

If he beats our flush, double him up and then win it all back later.

 Yeah this hand is just stupid with the short stacks and Ah+Kh both being on the board. Villain had Jh 6h and I posted this in my frustration...

no way I'm getting away from this when the guy only has 1/3rd of a stack behind him. You shouldn't be even remotely frustrated about this hand.

Does anyone else open the betting on the flop here?

 5-way from the SB into this loose/passive field, usually not. I'll often lead draws from the blinds though, but this one just isn't big enough and I don't think I had enough fold equity to make that the best play.

For the record, when I posted this originally, it wasn't with the intention of getting away from the hand, it was more a line check. There's probably a better way to get some money from worse hands, ie bet/call turn, lead river. Call a push.
