Default 10 10 facing a large raise, $55 hand

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t15 (9 handed) converter

BB (t2190)
UTG (t1000)
UTG+1 (t985)
MP1 (t1190)
Hero (t945)
MP3 (t975)
CO (t955)
Button (t945)
SB (t815)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
UTG calls t15, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Hero calls t15, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, CO calls t15, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">SB raises to t150</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG folds, Hero folds, CO folds.

Final Pot: t210

I'm never quite sure what to do in these situations, While a large raise out of the blinds normally is extreme strength I've seen this move very often with mid pocket pairs. I folded in the hand but didn't feel too good about it and wondered what other people's actions would be.

Yep, fold. You can push if you read AK and can keep chips if you win the race.
