I do not fold this one on the flop. I've got way too many outs and lots of company at this point to help with the odds. OESD + 2 more 8's and my 8's hurt other players chances of getting a straight. Unless the MP2 raise is completely out of character, I make that cold call.

And then, I admit I would be really PO'ed when I get c/r'ed on the turn. MP2 does not have the straight. 3 5's from BB is what I fear.

I may go down with this ship, but BB could be c/r ing a weaker two pair and your 8's are the overpair. Is BB that tricky is using a c/r?

This hand presents, for me, two tough questions from two different villians. Can someone else throw more light on this puzzle? I do not fold the flop, but I may regret that choice. Interesting and challenging hand.
