Default WA/WB hand

I'm still uncomfortable calling down KK when an Ace hits but overtime I'm learning that the experts on this forum are indeed right. Here's a hand, however, that I folded.

Am I wrong or is there no way that I can be good here 1/5?

PP 1/2 6 max. Both players are unknown

MP limps
Hero in SB raises red Kings
BB calls
MP calls

5 sb (A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img])

Hero bets
BB raises
MP calls
Hero folds


1)I don't have a backdoor draw and there are no flush draws on the board. 2) The pot is only giving me a bit less than 5-1 to call down. 3) I'll catch 1/11 and the other guys, if I'm ahead, will catch as often if not more than that. 4) I'm OOP so I risk loosing bets whether I'm ahead or I catch. 5) 5-1 odds doesn't include rake 6) I risk loosing the pot to the unknown player in the BB if I lead the river UI and get raised with a busted straight draw.

So I think I do need to be good here, probably, 25% of the time to just break even. Am I?
