Meh vs a bunch of regs, calling felt wrong and so did folding. Figured I had to be up against a bunch of 1 pair hands where even if im called ive got a million outs. Thoughts?

I really don't see how you can be sure you're against a bunch of one pair hands. still i think that a straight, set, or two pair is less likely, unless the original raiser has that because you would have likely heard from them on the flop or turn. I think you're definitely up against at least one or two one pair hands and some draws. your overbet looks a bit suspicious and could easily get called by someone with tpgk, which could make someone ovecall with a draw, which would be really bad for you. the good news though is that, it is impossible for you to be drawing dead against two of the opponents and likely you have 8 or 9 outs.
i guess i'm on the fence about this one and it would really come down to your read. doing a play like this into three opponents usually isn't going to get everyone to fold, but if you have a good enough feel for your opponents that you know you can get at least two to fold and get heads up with someone with just one pair then it is probably a good play. but IMO if two or more might call its a bad move.
