As hard as it would be to do I would lay this down. The small blind has announced that he has a hand that is pretty good that he is willing to go all-in against you who made a pot sized bet and there is still a bigger stack yet to act.

The BB has got to have at least a set, or more likely he has the straight, since he got to limp he quite easily could have 96, 64.

since you gave no reads on these players it is possible that someone made this move with AhXh and are on a flush draw, but given the action I would discount this possibility.

Everytime I have seen a similar situation someone has a set at a minimum and in this case someone has hit the straight.

Unless your reputation at the table is that of a loose aggressive maniac that will go after pots that are checked, I would think that being checkraised to the degree you were by two people says that your top two pair are not good. Unless the BB is a total lunatic, you are beaten here.

If it were one player, and he was loose aggressive, then you could think about making a call here, but the BB even if he were a loose player has to have a good hand because he cannot buy off the SB with his all-in, but he can scare you off, or suck you in because he doesn't care when he makes his bet. You showed real aggression towards this pot, and yet he didn't care. Take the hint.
