Default Call all in with made straight and 3 hearts on the board?

I am a beginner just starting out. If you have 8d 3d in the pocket and the board shows 10s 9h 7h 6s 2h and villain puts you all in do you call? In other words if you have a made straight and someone puts you all in with three of the same suit on the board do you worry about the flush and fold or just call the all in? What about same question and 4 hearts are showing on the board (e.g. in this example the 6s is a 6h), call the all-in? Thank you for your patience in considering my question.

More details are needed. An ENTIRE hand is necessary for this question to be accurately answered.

What was the betting like on the rounds before the river? Would a players betting lead you to believe they were on a flush draw? What type of player is your opponent in the hand? Do they like to chase draws?

To answer some of your queston: If you have a straight and there are 4 suited cards on the board and someone is betting like crazy, they usually aren't bluffing. Also if there are 2 or more opponents staying in the hand, generally someone has a flush.

More specific precise details on the hand in queestion are needed for a more accurate answer.

It depends. Poker is about a lot more than what your cards are.
