Default Anyway I can protect this hand ?

MP3, SB and button all similar - loose and passive, over 30% VP%IP and don't seem to know where the raise button is!

Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (9 max, 9 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is UTG with 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Hero posts a blind of $1.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP1 calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP3 calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button calls, SB completes, Hero (poster) checks.

Not sure whats up with the converter here, I was actually Big Blind, not a poster

Flop: (5 SB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(6 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, MP1 folds, MP3 calls, Button calls, SB calls.

Nice flop! but a flush draw possible, nice of SB bet out

Turn: (6.50 BB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP3 calls, Button calls, SB calls.

What here? a bet doesn't protect, as I'm giving 7.5:1 to a flush draw, cant be sure of a bet from MP3 or Button if I check

River: (10.50 BB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP3 calls, Button calls, SB folds.

Final Pot: 13.50 BB

Is this one of those hands mentioned in SSH where I'd have better protected by checking the flop and waiting to raise a safe card on the turn?
