Default $5 NL turned a straight on a monotone board

Apologies for the hand conversion. (Played on a site with weird hand history format so couldn’t use the convertors).

Full ring game that got down to just 6 players.
Nobody apparently doing anything way out of place.
Just wondering what the best line would be in this case

$0.02/$0.04 No Limit (6 players)
Hero is BB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Button: $3.23
SB: $11.07
Hero: $4.93
UTG: $16.25
MP: $2.86
CO: $6.78

UTG folds, MP raises to $0.08, CO calls $0.08, 2 folds, Hero calls $0.08

Flop: (3 players, $0.26) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
Hero bets $0.14, MP calls $0.14, CO calls $0.14

Turn: (3 players, $0.68) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
Hero checks, MP bets $0.16, CO raises to $0.80, Hero ?

Fold, you don´t even have the nutstraight and MP is still to act.

i think the cb on the flop is questionable.
the board is too dangerous and you have two people act after you.

Thanks for the replies, guys. Make a lot of sense.

I folded and CO eventually laid down a worse straight than mine to take the pot. That's poker. Long term, folding is EV I guess.

Thanks again.

Ignoring the result you just posted, I would read it as someone who is not scared to re-raise with a 4 card straight on the board. Its pretty obvious that people can have it, and raising without having it beat is pretty gutsy / stupid.

+EV to fold.

Definitely not a board I'm betting into...especially when you weren't the one to raise preflop and you are oop.
