Wow this is an insanely easy shove. Also, not raising flop is pretty bad.

This is a great call on the flop IMO. Raising is ok, but there are a lot of hands that we can represent on the turn and we have a very hidden draw. There is also very little to representing by raising the flop.

not that we are bluffing, I think this is a situation where we are the one getting the value

You misread the hand. We have no draw. We have a straight.

yup, I totally misread the hand. My comments should be opposite, raising should be better because there are are so many draws that we may have, and few made hands.

PLaying weaktight and scared is not the way to beat this game...

Flop call is okay for deception since the stacks are deep and we want to disguise our hand. But it is flat wrong that we can't rep anything with a flush draw. This is like the most coordinated board ever, and so hero can easily rep a wide range with a flop raise. So you should be raising this flop with a wide range anwyays, so it is a pretty easy raise when you have the 2nd nuts.
