Your hand is too vulnerable to call on flop I think. Get a free card??? Your hand has a very reasonable chance of being the best, freecards hurt you. And if you are behind, then 1/3 you are gonna make a straight.

How does a free card hurt you, unless you are talking about not being able to extract when you make your straight?

because if an a,k,q falls on the turn the hand is going to be really hard to play

I don't see how all of those cards will make it more difficult to play.

1) You have position on the other players.
2) You have a draw to what amounts to very close to the nuts
3) If you are ahead, your opponents have invested more in the pot already than they should with no pair or underpair hands, and they have already made a mistake.
4) Raising forces them to play their hand correctly against you therefore giving you the pot and nothing else when you are ahead, and making you pay too much for your draw when you are behind.
5) Even if an overcard hits the board on the turn, the other players are going to have to be a little worried about the 3 card straight on the board already.
