I would have let it go on the turn despite the $ in the pot. After MP3 bet, there were still two players acting after you. I would have assumed that someone has an A.

MP3 was a calling stationIF that's a solid read, fold it on the turn.Calling stations don't bet out for the hell of it, he hit his ace and you're drawing to two outs.

Think so Smash? Wouldn't the same betting pattern apply to someone on a broken flush draw?Dev

[Metro]

Calling stations are referred by that name because they call, not because they bet out. They don't bet out unless they make their hand. They are by far the easiest people to read. They call, they are chasing, they bet, they got what they were after.

I'd have released on the turn. Perhaps not if it was HU but you still have people behind you. The guy betting plays like he has A7, A8, or perhaps a nut flush draw and turned top pair. The fact that it's still multiway on turn makes it (to me) an easy fold. You have a possible made straight, a straight draw, a flush draw, and now an ace on the board. Time to run imo.
