Default Re: Straight draw on the flop

I agree it's a tough spot but i do think you have FE. My calling range(if i were MP1)towards UTG+1 is pretty big, big implied odds, it feels like his last attempt to take the pot. He'll probably check on the turn and I could take the pot, so two flat calls from MP1 don't mean that much to me. I think a lot of players with a big stack are just waiting for the FT and are not waiting to play big pots. This is also a reason why I think a push will probably work. Sure they've invested in the pot but they're still both healthy, with their stacks they can pick easier spots to take down pots, picking up blinds, resteals etc.. This board looks really scary from their point of view, besides that you check-raised with two players to come. Losing to your push would definately hurt them. In this situation your hand is perfect. If you get called you've got outs, but you want them to fold now and I think there's a big chance they will.
