Hand from Ignition 5NL, 6 max
I am unsure as to what the right play is in this scenario. When the SB leads out for 2/3 pot into 3 players I expect him to have a pretty good hand(at least a Q or better) so for that reason I don't like raising. Plus, if I call I invite one of the players behind to call with a weaker flush draw.

BUT

when I get raised by the player to my left I genuinely have no idea what to do.
If I call, its is going to be difficult to get paid, and I will often have to x/fold the turn.
Folding the nutflush draw feels to tight.
So I decided to jam all in and hope I wasn't up against a set.

What would you do in this spot? My main concern is with the player in the Hijack, I feel that when the SB calls the raise he is capped at a weaker flush draw or Qx since I would expect him to 3-bet a set.

I open A5s and A9s from UTG sometimes but not the A8s.

As played, the flop is an eye candy for this hand so it is difficult to put down the crack pipe. I think I would just inhale too.
