Single-Raised Pot
Flop
J♥ 4♥ 7♠

Checking the flop preserves our equity in a 3-way pot, while the river overbet from the SB makes our Ace-high an easy fold.

Flop Analysis

Checking back is a high-frequency play here. While we hold a range advantage, the presence of two opponents increases the likelihood that someone connected with this Jack-high board.

River Analysis

This is a trivial fold. After calling a small turn bet, the SB's massive river lead into two players on a flush-completing card represents extreme strength.
