Default Re: KQs....Big draw on the flop for me, help me play this street by st

SB: $15.75
BB: $33.95
Hero (UTG): $24.65
MP: $42.05
CO: $58.10
BTN: $21.30

Preflop: Hero is dealt Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (6 Players)
<font color="red">Hero raises to $1.00</font>, MP calls $1.00, CO calls $1.00, 3 folds

Flop: ($3.35) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (3 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $3.35</font>, MP calls $3.35, CO folds

Turn: ($10.05) 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players)
Hero checks, <font color="red">MP bets $10.05</font>,

I don't really like leading at the pot here for a couple of reasons.

1) Our equity in the hand has dropped quite a bit from the flop where vs JJ we are a 54/46 favorite. Now vs a single pair hand we are a 66/34 dog.

2) I think leading out has nowhere near the FE of a CRAI.

3) CRAI gives us a free card to hit the nuts if he checks behind, and great FE if he leads out for standard 2/3rds pot on the turn.

Unfortunately he leads out for full pot, which makes My CRAI far less effective here. Hero's line now??
