This table is full of weak players, which means my original raise was probably wrong, I'm supposed to play more passively

Full Tilt Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (9 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with K, 10
2 folds, MP1 calls, 1 fold, Hero raises, 1 fold, Button 3-bets, SB calls, BB calls, MP1 calls, Hero calls

Flop: (15.0 SB) 6, 2, 3 (5 players)
SB checks, BB bets, MP1 calls, Hero folds...

I'm getting odds to call, but I don't know which of my cards is alive if any, and if I'm already behind or not

Each over is worth 1.5 outs. To account for hitting and still not being good.

Meaning you have approx 3 outs here.

You have odds to peel to the turn
The older I get, the more I start wondering; Just what in the hell is going on here?

Is raising ever an option?

If you can guarantee you'll see the river for free... yes.

I have the 3-bettor behind me, he could 3-bet me if I raised, or raise if I called.

Even then, I can't guarantee seeing the next card free because if I check the turn after raising the flop the button might bet

I'm interested to hear what other, better players then I have to say, but for me this is a spot where reads/stats play a big role. Some regulars in my game will only donk w/ 2 pair or better, a few will only donk a set or better. If you've got a tight blind and an aggressive postflop button, I'd fold here. You might be drawing dead. You're very likely drawing to a runner-runner at best and will have to pay 2-3 bets to see the turn.

If you've got a true donk in the blind and a nitty button, I'd raise to drive out the button and clean up your outs (or have him define his hand here) and usually get a free turn card.

With the button 3bettor behind us and someone leading into us plus a call, I just fold this. Raising would be a huge spew, especially against guys who will chase an ace in this spot.
Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

My bad. I didn't notice MP1 already called.
