Default Mid-pair in blind battle vs c/r on perfect semi-bluff card.

I feel like I play these spots horribly. Villain is running 46/20 over very small sample.

5/10 Limit Holdem
5 players
Converted at weaktight.com

Stacks:
UTG (<font color="#0000cc">$206.00</font>)
Hero (<font color="#0000cc">$212.00</font>)
BTN (<font color="#0000cc">$237.50</font>)
SB (<font color="#0000cc">$482.25</font>)
BB (<font color="#0000cc">$121.95</font>)

Pre-flop: (1.5 SB, 5 players) Hero is CO 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
<font color="#777777">1 fold</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#777777">2 folds</font>, BB calls

Flop: 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (4.5 SB, 2 players)
BB checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets</font>, BB calls

Turn: 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (3.2 BB, 2 players)
BB checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#cc0000">BB bets</font>, Hero...

Both 3betting and folding seem really bad

Check the turn. You no longer have middle pair. You have bottom pair with a kicker that doesn't play. A 46/20 opponent is normally aggro, so checking the turn and calling a river bet is optimal.

I agree, you arn't beating much anymore but your beating enough of villains range for a calldown which will avoid tough situations like this where it's probable your good but you may be paying off an extra bet or folding the best hand.
