jackvance is an unknown quantity at this point
It complicates things that you'll have to include $10 more vs MP1, but theoretically you can never be given bad odds on a flush draw in a 3-way pot, esp since you're drawing to the nut flush.

However, I probably fold here because I'm kinda expecting someone to have a flush already (reason being that 2 players seem very happy with their hand suddenly when a 3rd heart shows up, which normally scares the crap out of everyone), ie I have less outs than I think probably.

Am I missing something obvious? Here, hero is betting $15 to win what would be $60, or about 3:1 to call drawing to the nut flush. IOW, about 25% equity (this may be the incorrect term).

If we assume that all hearts are live, which IMO is a poor assumption in this case, 9 hearts left of 46 unknown cards - about 4:1 or 20% expectation.

We are putting in 25% of the pot, expecing to win about 20% of the time (maybe a bit more with MP1's stack). Or is my math off?!

This hand - clear fold. Looks like you're drawing against a made flush.
