Hi Diablo and rbk,

Normally I just push, but given the player's description I would have probably bet 2k.

This is exactly how much I'd bet; very hard to turn down 6 to 1 with a straight no matter how it looks. I assume that by, "given the player's description," you meant "very good player". But I think I'd bet about the same thing against a bad or average player, too, because I think there's such a good chance of getting 2000 called, and because the bad player is more likely to be in there with a weaker hand than a straight.

It seems obvious to me that a very good player like Martin, as well as a solid player like MP, will rarely if ever have just called on the flop with the nuts. I basically rule out 87 after the flop action for MP, and totally rule it out for the button.
