What are your thoughts on this hand. I thought about betting out on the theory of people shoudnt be playing those middle cards, but at this table it was pretty much play anything. Since i had no low and at most it was going to be 3 handed if i called i didnt think it was worth it.

Although either card to make your straight will make you the nuts, I am 100% sure you're playing for only half the pot, and you could still get outdrawn. Given that you're out of position facing a pot-sized bet, I'd just let it go. Not the type of hand I'm looking to play a big pot with.
