I don't usually post in this section but I don't see how you can get away from this hand. You don't think he has JJ...so that leaves 44,55,76. Against 2 of those hands you are a huge favorite and against 1 of them you are drawing to 10 outs. You also already have 1/4 of your stack in the pot. There is no way you can fold this.

Why? There is $10 in the pot and only $2 of it is yours. How is risking $136 to win $10 +EV? There were four people in the hand against you that could have flopped the nuts. If there isn't a straight or flush possiblity on the flop, I run with it too, otherwise, why am I risking my whole stack?
Ack, I certainly didn't mean open-pushing. Just that the betting probably would have gone the same way - bet/raise/re-raise/re-raise/push or something like that - and even though you're gonna have a sinking feeling a lot of the time that the dude has 67, you have outs against that and it's very possible he'd do the same with 55 or 44. So, I'd be willing to go all the way with this hand on the flop.

bet flop- i wouldn't necessarily be worried about someone having a 6 or 7, but it is gonna kill the action if one of those cards drop. basically, you gotta get money in now, because if a 6 or 7 hits, you won't get action unless someone has straight.
on turn- i would've just called turn. once you raised and he came over the top, you should fold. after you raise, IMO, the over-the-top push looks a lot like 67, and this hand is very likely given the action. by calling, you draw to a boat anyway, but don't lose all your money to a hand that beats yours, and is a likely holding for him.
forgot to mention, this hand is very read depending, but since you said he is solid, you're probably looking at the straight.
Precisely what I was thinking. In a multiway 6 max pot, someone is very likely calling your PSB on this flop. Also, this acts as a probe which may be slowplayed by the nuts and give you a free card while juicing the pot a little. Alternatively, as goofyballer mentioned, if youre raised and prepared to showdown you can get your money in w/ 2 streets to go and more pot equity.
Remember that solid players will play these hands (SC) in multiway pots for just this reason. Think about how you would play it if you were villain.
