would you fold the nut straight on the flop

ok here goes, a game of holdem tonight, 5/10 cent nl. just sat down at the table.
me = bb
flop is =

another 2 guys was in. one guy was all in for
3 dollars. , i reraise
he goes all in, i call which is me all in.

What i am wondering is, should i have folded considering there was four to the flush on the flop.

Well, the only thing that can beat you right now is if your opponent is holding KQ (so you don't quite have the nut straight). I would be interested in knowing what sort of action happened pre-flop, and stack sizes, etc.

But to answer your question, I don't see how you could fold here. I wouldn't worry about the flush just yet, because no one has one. The only thing I would worry about is that he is holding KQ.

EEK!!! you have top and bottom of a straight. I would be afriad of KQ more than the flush. KQ is a common limping hand and would have you crushed right now.

As far as the flush goes. It is only a 34% chance now, you dream about them going all-in. They will pay you off 2 out of 3 times.

I would call and close my eyes so I don't have to watch it when they turn over their cards. You have to see what he has but I am afraid you were behind.

Edit: JQ and I said the same thing at the same time, LOL

Except that your response is ever so much more eloquent than mine!

i agree with both of ya
flush is nothing to worry about - you actually want people to push with the draw because you are a favourite.
I'd also be more afraid of KQ, but my decision is based on the stack sizes, the preflop action and my reads on the players.

I wouldn't bet the ranch, but I would have to make the call.

Oh ya, silly me, most of being having a dizzy blonde moment, it wasnt the nut straight at all.

However I called the all in. And runner runner hearts came down so i knew i was a gonner. The other guy also turned over q8 but they were both hearts
