Cant belive I had so many limpers, therefore I was well prepared to give up the hand - but with position and everyone checking round to me I made a 3/4 pot stab, recieved one caller on a flush draw who didnt hit. Can anyone tell me if i had pot odds to call the turn raise!? and a rough way of working it out with 6 outs and his $1.80 bet into then $12.20 pot

...would be much appretiated

That is one jacked up looking hh. I assume that the umlaut means spades, and the crazy squiqqly thing, the exponent a, and the copyright symbol are the other three suits.

Anyway, to answer your question - his $1.80 means that, in total, the pot is $14.00, and you have to call $1.80. Divide 14.00 by 1.80 to get your pot odds, which is approx. 7.8-1. With 6 cards that help you and 38 that don't, you're 6.3-1 to make your hand, so you have the odds, if you had in fact had 6 outs.

If I'm playing this hand on the turn, though, I'm not thinking "I have 6 outs." I'm thinking maybe I have 6 outs, or maybe I'm drawing dead to a boat, or maybe I'm going to split this pot with another ace. Pot odds are important in this hand, but not so much in a "what are the odds my hand will hit" sort of way, rather more of a "what are the odds my hand is good" sort of way.
