Default Raise pre, fold flop w/TPGK?

BB in this hand is a solid player, UTG is sLA-A. I'd have 3-bet a single raise from either of them, but facing the choice between capping and folding, I didn't like how this smelled. Good play or too weak?

Party Poker 3/6 Hold'em (10 handed)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
UTG calls, UTG+1 folds, UTG+2 folds, MP1 folds, MP2 folds, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, CO folds, Button calls, SB calls, BB calls, UTG calls.

Flop: (10 SB) A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(5 players)</font>
<font color="CC3333">SB bets</font>, <font color="CC3333">BB raises</font>, <font color="CC3333">UTG 3-bets</font>, Hero folds, Button folds, SB folds, BB calls.

It's a very rare occasion that you're ahead here. Folding was the right decision.

Since neither one raised pre-flop, it's tough to put either one of them on a hand. Either way, a solid player raising generally means something strong. The 3-bet by the aggressive player could be TP to a heart draw. Things don't look good, no reason to throw more money away.

I'm figuring you're up against a worse hand, a heart draw, and a hand that has you beaten now. Good fold
