Re: Flopped straight
Preflop: Easy complete
Flop: I'd bet more here. You're not even betting the size of the pot, and this is a pretty draw-heavy board. There are a multitude of cards I don't want to see on the turn (any spade, any 6, any 8). If the flop hit anyone else pretty hard, they'll be more than happy to play along. Then your decision is pretty easy.
Turn: Again, I'd bet more along the lines of the size of the pot. And the raise seems a tad out of line for someone who just filled up, and even moreso since he just called your flop raise on this draw heavy board. I'd say he's got A5 more often here than 77 or 44 and he doesn't like MP1's chase and wants him out. He's probably putting you on top pair or maybe an overpair like 88 or 99 and wants action.
I put both players to the test here and push, with a great chance of tripling up. If someone has 68 or a boat, so be it, but I can guarantee you they're not putting you on a flopped straight.
