Default $11 NLHE - Bet out differently so I could get away from this hand?

Accidentally signed up for a NLHE SnG when trying to click on a PLO8 one... was doing OK until this hand came up, pretty early on. Usually in PLO8 if I connect with the flop well, I'll just use the 'bet pot' button, and be done with my bet sizing. I seem to have gotten trapped doing that.

Is there a more standard line that would let me release this hand, instead of being committed to my sinking ship? As it played out, am I correct into assuming I don't really have any choice but to call and hope for a flush? The price seemed to be right.
