I understand the desire to peel here, but how can you find value in it. For the sake of discussion, MP1 has QQ, giving you Two clean overcards. Now you have two other players to consider, a flush draw on the board, you have to instantly discount 2 outs at least partially, plus a lame little str8 draw out there that you could be drawing with, and the possibility of reverse domination. While the pot is HUGE no doubt, peeling one now is just grounds for folding on the turn. What card are you hoping for? An Ace, a King, a str8 draw card? Now lets re-open MP1's hand range and he could already have two of your outs in his hand. In this case he has JJ and your drawing to a straight and praying the board doesnt pair.
