made straight + draw

[soko]

I was on tilt here, what a crappy day... but what do you think is going on here? Am I being too agressive? Open-ended straight flush draw with a made straight, what do you think?

I really don't like the push with the bottom end of the straight. I think that a raise on the flop is in order here, because it better defines your hand and you'll be able to find out where you stand against MP3. I realize that if you're behind on the turn, you've picked up a few more outs, but still, I don't like the play.

Also, did the converter screw up, or did MP3 really bet $7 into a $3 pot?

You have to raise this flop.

I see what your saying about raising the flop, but besides the fact that it's dangerous to slow-play and give cheap draws a chance to beat me there is no way I can fold this hand at these levels because he could easily have two pair or a set and play it the same way so I figure I am going all in either way because calling is way too weak. And yes that 7 dollar over-bet set off bluff sirens in my head; that, with the added tilt factor made me want to push.
