I like your post, really good and lucid, thanks. Now I understand that our decision to call or push depends on:
- what is BTN`s range;
- what will he do with it when we call or push.

Before your post I thought only about my hand: I have over 25% vs. made straights, I can fold something, maybe hands which are far ahead vs. my King-high hand on this turn and that was all my thinking proccess before I pushed .

I can only add to your post that opponent is very tight preflop, he plays not a lot of starters, so, I can assume that when he will have NFD here, I don't think he will decide to fold it even if I pushes. Also, this is only PLO50 and even if he is a solid player, he can close his eyes and call. Coz of that, now I understand your logic and why call is the best play here.

But in this hand I pushed, both opponents showed me straight (without any flushdraws) and there was no happy end for me on blank river .

One more time, thanks for your clarification. You opened my eyes
