I felt I had odds to call on the flop. Go for the c/r on the turn or bet out?

I may be wrong but on a 2 suited coordinated board like that, might be best to bet saying "I have the queen." Its not likely someones made their straight, but its possible. There's also a good liklihood that everyone is drawing, and you wouldn't want this to get checked through. I think the play is to bet. Also, considering the BB bet the flop, your check-raise is going to marry everyone to the pot and your hand isn't strong enough to stand it.

I'd have folded this on the flop with just 5 small bets in the pot and a highly coordinated board. You have an inside str8 draw, but an 8 of clubs could give someone a flush. A backdoor flush draw. Any 9 could give someone else a str8. A club Q could give someone else a flush. Even if you hit the Q, you could already be drawing dead to a str8 or someone could hit the flush.

There are 7SB in the pot, not 5.

On the flop, you have:
Two overcards (6 outs)
Backdoor flush draw (1 out total?)
Inside straight draw (4 outs)
Total outs: 11
But, some of those are not clean.
The 8/images/graemlins/club.gif gives a flush
Any 8 gives you second high straight
A 9 could give anyone with an 8 a straight
So you need to lower your 11 outs:
-1 for the 8/images/graemlins/club.gif
-1 for the Q/images/graemlins/club.gif
-3 for any 9 (?)
-1 for the other two 8s since you will not have the nut straight (?)
<font color="blue">Not sure the total negatives for the unclean outs</font>
So you have 5 clean outs and need 8.4:1 to call (52 - 5 seen cards - 5 outs = 42:5).
You are getting 7:1, so you should fold.
Since you called, the Q/images/graemlins/diamond.gif is a very good card for you and with BB next to act, I think it is better to lead the turn hoping that BB will raise and knock the other two out.
