Preflop I call every time. This flop call is nowhere near as bad as you guys make it out to be. You have two backdoor draws to the nuts, and you are closing the action. See Peter_Rus's post on this point.

No, it's bad. One of those nut backdoor draws is to a broadway 4-straight, which may well be good only for 1/2 the pot even if he is lucky enough to get to see the river, which is not a given at all. In fact, if he only picks up a gutshot, he'll have to fold the turn quite often.

good luck.
