Well, you don't have much FE, but the pot is laying you a pretty good price here with your likely 15 outer. I'm pretty ok with the play.

Am I seeing monsters here thinking that the button has the A high flush draw? I just can't put him on a hand, maybe a smaller flush draw, but someone here has a flush draw as well.

Only with all the action before you, do you get the price you are looking for with your draw. Only unlike Gavin, I think you are drawing a good bit thinner than 15 outs. That 300 bet screams strength to me. If he bets a little less, your folding equity increases and I like the push more. But your 9 outs are looking good. One thing to be aware of though is there is probably another flush draw out there, reducing some of your value. Hope it worked out.

Hey everyone, thanks for your input. I was going to play this hand to the end due to my big draw and so much action. Calling would have pretty much made me pot committed so I figured I'd push knowing I would get at least one caller. Maybe two. The hand posted with results:
