By the time I was posting this hand, I had decided my turn call was too loose. But Shill says otherwise, so I'm bumping the thread.
Anyway, here's the whole hand:

Final Pot: 8 BB
When SB bet the turn, I spent nearly my entire allotted time trying to figure out what to do. I worried about a raise behind me, but I thought I'd regret folding if there were calls behind me instead. Finally, I gave up on figuring out what was best and called.
In retrospect, I do think that unless someone behind me had slowplayed the flop, the turn card wasn't that likely to improve someone to a raising hand. Also, someone with a jack quite likely would have a pair or an overcard to go with it and might've bet the flop. I don't know how much I need to worry about hands like A6; possibly that hand would fold to SB's turn bet anyway, though (but I don't think I should count on that). What I'm hoping for with a call is for people with hands that don't interfere with my outs to call as well. But this kind of situation, where I have two separate one-card straight draws, doesn't come up very much, and after the hand I began thinking my turn call had been too optimistic.
