Calls and prays for a low to make up for a poorly played flop.

SB led the flop, OOP, against a PFR. I'm putting him on any number of hands you don't like. Stray 4, 99, [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]draw, etc.
IMO, you have hit a bad flop. Top and bottom 2 on a paired, flushy, high board. ICK!
I think your call is terrible. Muck it or raise. The raise might get you a free pass to the river, cheaper, or at the very least (I hate saying this) it will let you know where you're at.

So you blew it, ok, now you get a mediocre turn, and are pretty much stuck. Quiet MP just woke up, your high is toast, and you have 12 outs to (hopefully) half the pot.
I think you need to call, hoping the blinds come along, and then get lucky when two boats bump the pot.
