My 45 hearts turned a double belly buster... I played my draw Brunson style, but I don't think Brunson style is particularly well suited to low stakes no limit since you almost never have any fold equity. Should I have just folded this one to the flop checkraise?

1. Preflop is Ok, don't let them tell ya different.
2. Flop: You are wayyy out of position with lots of opponents. Just check and try to see a cheap card.
3. Once UTG+1's raise comes in you need to look at your odds. You have a 1/3 chance of making your hand by the river, you might lose to a full house if he has set, he's not going to fold if you come over the top. You are not getting 2:1 on a push or 5:1 to see another card. You must fold.
