I seem to be getting a lot of hands lately of this sort:
Party Poker 0.5/1 Hold'em (9 handed)
Preflop: Hero is SB with 6/images/graemlins/spade.gif, Q/images/graemlins/spade.gif.
<font color="666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls, MP1 calls, <font color="666666">1 fold</font>, MP3 calls, <font color="666666">2 folds</font>, Hero completes, BB checks.
Flop: (5 SB) 5/images/graemlins/club.gif, 6/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, J/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="blue">(5 players)</font>
With no "extras" like a backdoor flush or straight draw, my line here would normally be to check and call if I was getting the pot odds for my 5 outs; otherwise I fold. Is that the correct line? If you're acting last and it is checked around to you, would you bet? Is there any situation where you would raise?
