Default over pessimistic?

My WTSD has been falling this month (maybe too much) as I try to read better and avoid reverse implied odds situations. Against an unknown (who's like 30/12 after like 20 hands and has openlimped a few times), how do you guys play this?

Absolute Poker
Limit Holdem Ring game
Limit: $10/$20
5 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (5 players) Donger is BB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
2 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Button raises</font>, SB calls, Donger calls.

Flop: 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (6SB, 3 players)
SB checks, Donger checks, <font color="#cc0000">Button bets</font>, SB folds, Donger ???.

I fold pf, and c/r the flop, planning on letting it go if shown more aggression.

I would peel the flop and check/fold the turn UI.

Never even occurred to me to fold preflop. That seem really tight but I'm willing to listen to an argument for it.

WTF?

What's your fold bb to steal, 65% or something?

Folding medium connected cards to a button open 5 handed is insane. Folding after sb calls and you're getting 5-1 is beyond insane.
