Default Huge draw facing a push and a call on flop

Initial pusher had been doing this kind of thing and l/caller was pretty loose preflop, but not so much post.

Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (6 handed) Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

MX ($28.65)
Button ($39.20)
SB ($45.40)
BB ($27.45)
UTG ($35.80)
MP ($10.25)

Preflop: MX is CO with Q, J.
1 fold, MP calls $0.25, MX raises to $1.1, 2 folds, BB calls $0.85, MP calls $0.85.

Flop: ($3.40) 8, K, T (3 players)
BB bets $26.35 (All-In), MP calls $9.15 (All-In), MX???????


Really unsure what to do here.

I just busted out of a tournament with almost this exact scenario. I had the combo draw, original bettor had top 2, next caller had nut flush draw.

I've found that in this situation, one player usually has a better flush draw. Other guy might have TPGK or better.

I'd call.
Even if you're slightly behind MP - you have a considerable sidepot with the BB and based on your read you should be way ahead of his range.

Snap call. Even if somebody has a better flush draw you're not in horrible shape.

definitely a snap call, you are getting better odds to call since it is 3-way, and every hand you hit is essentially the nutz. This is a cash game get your money in and if you lose rebuy, but this is a great spot to get a good stack.

Thanks all. I did make the call. BB had Ad 9d and mp had Qs Js. The turn was a blank but the river was the wonderful 9h giving me a straight flush

Well, I think I would fold that on the flop!
1. Your not a huge favourite and will win in about 1/3 of the time, if BB-handrange is not total crap (maybe he pushes A and K-high flushdraws, twopair or better and bluffs 20% of the time /w A-high)
2. You have no fold equity
3. The pot before the push was quite small

So... this situation seems marginal to me, so just reduce your variance and fold.
