Hello, I am up against a loose-passive player that raises my flop cbet. Do I fold on the flop here?

Against a passive player you could overfold. You have only bottom 2 pair and there are better 2pair, sets and a straight possible.
But you have only 14 hands on him so maybe we can't base our decision on that sample?
I think calling the flop is ok. OTT now any Q makes a straight so I guess you have to fold.

We make a nice cbet and villain raises to nearly 4×... Just fold.

My first instincts would say we call once OTF but actually we can only beat a straight if we hit another J or T. All other 2p+ hands have us beat.

This is a very, very clear fold.

Think about the complete situation. UTG open..., two callers ..., that flop hits UTG..., UTG bets into two players...

What does UTG (you) represent? You represent a very strong hand. Yet you get raised by MP with SB yet to act.

The conclusion is that you usually don't beat a single hand and may well be drawing dead.
