I wouldnt bet that flop. Your stacks are too even, the blinds are too small, and there are too many people left. Oh, and it missed you pretty badly.

If I WERE going to bet this, I would push, hoping he doesnt have a K and will fold a 9 if he has one.

BB could have anything here. Your play is very standard steal, continuation bet steal, and at the 33s I would guess that at least half the players are at least somewhat aware of it. In general its not a horrible play but I think with your chip stack the risk/reward is not in your favor to try and steal that 50 chip BB.
