Nut flush draw against two made straights?

I think your discounting a guy here having both the made straight and a set. a hand like 99TQ, QJJT- etc.

All are reasonable holdings, could let the guy holding this freeroll towards his boat.

Yeah, but it's just not very likely. Occasionally you will run into that yes, but very rarely.

I had one of those straights and to be honest I knew exactly what you had when you called his re-raise and was going to make you pay every penny for that draw. I am really suprised you stayed in.

You had no redraws, all you were going for was the nut flush draw - I don't see how this can be a good play on flop unless you are getting 4:1 which you weren't by any means here.

I would like to know, do others think this was a good set of calls he made here honestly??

P.S. You played a solid game overall at both tables I was at with you and this is the only hand I didn't understand your play on.
