Call or fold straight flush draw here?
Playing on 200 weekly tourney
Mid stage of tourney, rebuy still available.
Hero raises min A8♥ from mp after 1 caller. Gets called 4 way to the flop.
Flop 6♥7♣9♥
Bb donks 15k to 30k pot. Early position calls.
Hero raises to 50k. Bb shoves abt 250k. Ep calls for 75k.
Hero stack abt 325 ish.
Basically getting 2 to 1 when real equity is 50%. But will get crippled if hero loses this flip.
Is calling or folding the correct long run play here? Folding will leave hero abt 80-90bb. Call and lose will leave with abt 25 bb.

What are the blinds? Stack sizes don't mean much without that information.
Raise more than the minimum after a limper. Don't raise the flop unless you're planning to stack off.
I would call that in a heartbeat if you have Ah8h. straight draw, flush draw and one over card. pot odds is 42% if I'm right and chances of hitting your flush or straight is 52% so imo call
Blinds 1.5/3k
I had 325k ish
I don't see how you can raise this flop and consider folding. The worst case scenario is you have 25% equity and 5% equity to tie. That's the worst, but there are many hands that you will have greater than 40% equity ( if they both have sets 99 and 66, then you have 42% equity). If they both have the straight, you are at 38%. So basically, there isn't a world where this is gonna be a fold. The only possibility where I think this can be folded is if there is some satellite pressure and we are close to the bubble.
