Default oesd and the board pairs on the turn

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (10 handed) converter

UTG is tight aggressive. The players in late position are very bad; too loose and aggressive at the wrong times (I've played with them before).

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. MP3 posts a blind of $2. CO posts a blind of $2.
UTG calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+2 calls, Hero calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP3 (poster) checks, CO (poster) checks, Button calls, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (8 SB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(8 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, UTG+2 folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, MP3 folds, CO calls, Button calls, SB folds, BB calls, UTG calls.

Turn: (9 BB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
BB checks, UTG checks, Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">CO bets</font>, Button calls, BB folds, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises</font>, Hero ???

I'd have to give myself at least 7 outs to call 2 cold on the turn. Assuming I won't get 3bet, do I call? Drawing to straights and flushes on seemingly harmless paired boards has been hazardous in a number of previous hands.

Btw, this looks like a pretty loose preflop call, but with all the dead money from the posters it seemed Ok. Let me know if the preflop limp is bad.

Don't raise the flop. You can call the turn.

Flop raise is successful! I'd be afraid to push others out of the pot.

Turn: I fold for the reasons you already aware of. 3 bet possibility, no re-raise potential should you hit, may be drawing dead, 4 of your outs may be dead.

To be technical, the pot is laying you about 8-1 with the implied odds, and I'd give myself 6.5 outs which makes it a clear call. But the reverse implied are too scary for me.

Good analysis of the turn situation.
