SB= 47/15/1.1

Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

Preflop: Hero is CO with Q/images/graemlins/spade.gif, Q/images/graemlins/diamond.gif.
UTG calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG calls.

Flop: (7 SB) 5/images/graemlins/club.gif, 4/images/graemlins/spade.gif, A/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">SB raises</font>, UTG calls, Hero calls.

Turn: (6.50 BB) 9/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, UTG checks, Hero ???

Do I put SB on a flush draw, who raised the flop to pump a pot? What is your general mindset when a situation like this arises?

This board is too drawy to give a free card. If he check raises again I think it would be easy to let this go.

If he were a good player (which obviously he's not) the check-raise looks more like trying to protect a made hand than a flush draw. UTG looks more like he may be drawing.

I would bet the turn. Without reads though, I think it's tough to want to call if he c/r's again.

I'm generally thinking about betting the turn to prevent a free card and putting no more money in if I don't spike a Q

bet the turn. SB has a weak pair, and UTG is on a flush draw or a pair of aces, but you cant give complete credit to aces just yet.

Like others said, bet the turn. Its easy to give up if you're raised again (especially if UTG cold calls again), you can't give a free card, and you can usually check behind on the river. Even if UTG has an A, if he doesn't wake up on the turn then he's planning to c/c the river, so you get an easy showdown.
