Raising and getting 3 or 4 callers

[rivered]

I've had a problem in the past with playing hands similiar to this and raising to far. Do you think this is a good fold? I would call if I had 2 overcards, especially if there was no flush showing but I'm not sure if this is a good idea. If I raise and someone bets into me on the flop (with 3 or 4 people in the hand) is it best to play it pretty tight unless you think they are bluffing or am I to quick to fold.

I think the fold is probably correct. That's not a good board for your hand. However if my hand were A /images/graemlins/diamond.gif J /images/graemlins/club.gif then I'd call or possibly raise. I'd also call or possibly raise if there were not a caller on the flop.
