Call to Open Ended Straight Draw?

[DVC Calif]

Hand from a $10 PP SnG.

I'm pretty sure I made the correct decision to fold with 2 out of 3 players ahead going all-in. I have them all covered but didn't want to risk so many chips on a only a draw.

But afterwards, I was wondering whether there actually was enough chips in the pot to call. Odds on OESD are 2.18 with two cards coming and 4.75 with one card. I would be getting at least 3:1 if BB didn't later go all-in and slightly better than 2:1 if he did.

Of course there is the possibility that I would be drawing dead if someone had an T9 boat, quad Tens, or made the spade flush.

Is calling +EV or would that be too loose.

Thanks, Steve
