What are the chances of hitting one of your 5 outs?
What are the chances your 5 outs are good? If they're not good, how much money relative to the pot are you losing when you hit second best? Even if you catch good, what are his chances of re-sucking?
What are the chances your hand is good and won't face any further pressure?
What are the chances something interesting will turn and you'll push this unknown off his hand?

I'm not being defeatist, it's quite possible to answer those questions in such a way you should continue. I don't see it happening here.

This is the whole crux of the tight post-flop play in unraised pots argument.

Take a step back.

How would you play poker if someone dropped $1,000,000 into the pot?
How would you play poker if someone took all but 1 bind blind out of the pot?
Food for thought....
