On being dealt a 5 and a 7, but drawing a straight on the river in a game of Texas Hold ‘em

In case you wonder: Odds/probability of making a straight by the river from an open-ended straight draw on the flop - 2.2 to 1 (or 31.3% chance) That doesn't sound so bad. Then again: Odds/probability of hitting an open-ended straight draw on the river card -- 4.8 to 1 (or 17.2% chance). I'll let AA compute the probs.
