Party Poker 3/6 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Preflop: Hero is BB with 4, 2.
UTG calls, 1 fold, CO calls, Button calls, 1 fold, Hero checks.

Flop: (4.33 SB) Q, 3, A (4 players)
Hero checks, UTG bets, CO folds, Button calls, Hero...

I had to stop and think here. I have 4 clean outs, but I'm only getting immediate 6:1 pot odds and am somewhat vulnerable to redraws. On the other hand, the ace on the board in a 6-max game means I'm probably getting a good amount of action if I hit. Do I have any interest in peeling one?
TylerK: its just gambling if i want to worry about money i'll go to work lol

Call, you've got the outs here to make a very marginal call. 4 outs for the gutshot and a backdoor flush. You're getting 7-1 here to call.

This is an ideal spot for your draw, since your gutshot is well disguised, you have a (weak) backdoor flush draw, and the player to your immediate left is driving the betting. If a 5 falls on the turn, you've got an easy check-raise, possibly earning 4 bets on the turn and another 1 or 2 on the river.
