Whats with the flop size? I'd bet 8$ probably.  Folding turn as played, what else can we do. We beat no value hands. Do we have any reads? VIP levels, table number, location?

Well taking the pot HU I would have been happy with the $3

Not many people continue on mono tone boards in zoom.

Obv as it plays its pretty sigh

So lets assume the over caller isn't in on the flop (and as played to the turn), we 100% folding? Just feels like a flopped weak flush? No consideration to Kc + pair combos?

sorry i dont understand you, it went 4 way on the flop. what are you asking me to assume? if we called the flop raise and the second guy folded? yeah i would fold. i would probably just fold to the first raise, but when you bet this really weird amount i dont know what id do because id never be in that situation and people almost certainly will react different to this bet than a normal bet.

its possible he thinks youre a big fish because of your sizing and would raise some Ax hands for value.

In general these zoom games are meant to be tough but in reality they are soft if you play good fundamental poker and have a good overall game.

Yeah I agree with the others about the flop Guy, you should definitely be betting somewhere close to 80% pot I think, to get value from Kc Xx and Ax Xc, but also because it gives you great visibility in the hand. If you pot it and he raises then we can just sigh and fold knowing we probably have 4 outs. When you bet this silly amount it doesn't really give us any information about what kind of hand the villain has because he may just be pouncing on the perceived weak bet.

That being said, it is 4 way to the flop so it's pretty likely that he's not getting too out of line, and even with our ridiculous sizing his flop raising range is going to be mostly flushes.

Just fold.
