Re: 2 unorthodox hands - 15/30 limit.
Hi BlueBear - I don't like folding here, but the threat of the whip-saw (both players, re-raising to make a total of 4 big bets) was the scale tipper for me.
As you note, Hero's only getting 5 to 2. If there are two re-raises, that is cut to between 4 to 2 and 3 to 2 (something in that neighborhood - not clear what SB does if you call and Button raises).
But although I do read this as more of a push-out attempt than an actual straight, and that makes me loathe to fold, somebody could easily have aces and sixes, aces and nines, aces and tens, or a set. And somebody could have the straight.
And then the double bet, one of them a check-raise.... in actual play, I'm going to always hate the double bet, but I'm probably going to call against some known players but fold against most.
