Default 10/180: two pair on the flush flop against bettor and reraiser

Hi. Reraiser has been pretty active, but was not doing anything out of line. Bettor was less active and somewhat tight. What should I do? Am I beating anything on this board?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (9 handed) Hand History converter Courtesy of PokerZion.com

Button (t4083)
SB (t2680)
Hero (t2235)
UTG (t1575)
UTG+1 (t2995)
MP1 (t2225)
MP2 (t2921)
MP3 (t769)
CO (t795)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls t100, MP1 calls t100, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, Button calls t100, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero checks.

Flop: (t450) 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
Hero checks, UTG+1 checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 bets t250</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t3983</font>, Hero .....

Pretty tough to say one way or another in an unraised pot. I honestly don't know what to do here.

Button could have Ah 6x, Ah 5x, 8x 9h, 56, 2 hearts, 3 fives... there's nothign here to tell us one way or another. does MP1 have the high heart? The only clue is you said he hasn't done anything out of line... if that's the case then fold.

at best you have the initial raiser beat but are a coinflip to the turn and barely ahead to the river, if you'd like to gamboool shove. Which would be a bad play IMO.

I would have lead out on this flop probably around 300. As played I think buttons most likely hand is either a very small flush or something like a pair and the A or K of hearts. For me this would come down to reads, however, I think that folding is probably the best play. He could also have flopped a set, although he played it extremly aggressivly.
