Assume you have 6/images/graemlins/diamond.gif 6/images/graemlins/heart.gif on a flop of 4/images/graemlins/spade.gif 5/images/graemlins/club.gif 7/images/graemlins/diamond.gif and you're on the button. There's a bet and many callers, what do you do?

Even if you hit your 6 for a set, someone now has probably made their straight. I assume you having two of the sixes decreases the risk of someone else having one, so if you made your straight, hopefully it wouldn't be split.

Raise, call or fold?

Raise, you have big equity with "many callers" to hit your straight. You also might have the best hand.
