Default Cowboys vs. openended straight + fourflush

Can someone please walk me through this one?

It's early in the daily $100+9 75K guaranteed multi at Ladbrokes, blinds are 25/50 when I pick up K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. UTG and UTG+1 calls. Everyone else folds to the CU (me) who raises 4xBB to 200. Button and the blinds folds, the two initial callers calls.

Flop is 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

UTG checks, UTG+1 (table chipleader with 4800) bet 400 into the 750 pot. I figure him to be on a continuation-bet but the two clubs scare me so I go all-in with my remaining 925. UTG folds, the other dude calls and flips over 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] - open ended straightdraw and fourflush.

Turn and river is 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], he completes the straight and I'm out.

Of course with 15 good outs the odds were 2:1, and the pot lay him slightly more, so his call was correct. But what about my play on the flop? Should I just take my hat off to this guy who really outplayed me, or was my push uncalled for?

I'm still (hopefully) learning, so I'd be happy for any input.
