No way, SB vs BB you have to call down IMO. If you raise from the SB, you seldom have the ace, so BB could bluff you off every time if you don't even showdown second pair.

I definatly fold turn here, I don't see much else he's raising you with here besides some sort of ace, have you seen what kind of hands he typically defends the BB with? Either way I fold here and move on.

edit: as always I misread that you were in the small blind, this might change my opinion a little bit but I still think your up against an ace

If you had 99, I would fold. But here you have a pretty strong hand for this board, so I'd just call down.

U have middlepair decent kicker and it costs u at most 2BB to call to showdown to win 6 (or if river goes c/c u get 1:5). That is u just have to be good one third of the time. I don't know your metagame but if u raise most of the time from SB any mostly any Ace should have reraised u preflop.
Calldown.
