I figure this is an easy complete from the SB, but I really don't like the flop. In the past, against loose fish who would play anything, I might have called with the OESD, but as I move up I run into players who actually know what they're doing. Even if I make the straight I'm not at all happy about it. At first glance I'm getting easy immediate odds at 9:1 with 8 outs, but I really don't want a jack and I don't want the 6/images/graemlins/spade.gif which only leaves 3 good outs. Anyone call this?

fold. you're looking at around 3 outs for the 6 non-/images/graemlins/spade.gif, if you're not losing to KJ already. small pot: bu bye.

This is a pretty clear fold, since you only have 3 outs, at best. I'd be curious, though, how big the pot would have to be for folks before check/fold turns to check/call.
