meh id probably let this one go because its 2 flushed. 13-2, 6.5-1 you have 3 clean straight outs, no clean ace outs, and a backdoor flush out. id want 9 or 10-1 here. plus dude might 3 bet. also, if you are going to play, consider 3-betting to clear up some outs. MP, CO, and button are left to act.

Fold.

The pot is giving you like 6-1. You have a gutshot (4 outs) + 3 overcard outs, so you're approximately 14% to make your hand by the turn which is roughly 6-1.

However, the 2 flushed board takes away two of your outs and your overcard outs are not a sure thing, so you really don't have the odds to call 2 on this flop.

Don't forget the backdoor flush draw. That makes it closer but still not quite enough IMO.
