Default Stupid or Brilliant Call?

Ok this was level IV 50/100 blinds of a Stars $5.50 SNG, and I made a call I couldn't decide if it was smart or stupid.

Here's the situation (7 players left) 4 calls and I check in the BB with J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Flop Comes 9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
SB(T2065): Bet 300
Hero BB(T1965): Call
UTG(T1470): Fold
UTG+1(T1490): All-in
MP(T2855): Fold
SB: Call
BB Hero: Call

9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Turn 3 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

SB: all-in
Hero: all-in



Results later. Here was my thinking tell me how dumb I am. Quick calculation told me I had to call 1190 for a chance at nearly 3800 talking about 3 to 1. I assumed I was against 2 flush draws, or 1 flush draw and 1 two pair or trips. Giving me 6 outs or about 3 to 1 which is what my pot odds were. The turn brought a 3 which assuming no one had trips added more outs of 2 of the 3 jacks and all 3 tens giving me 11 outs. So on the turn it was 455 chips to win about 5000 with odds of about 3 to 1 so the turn call was easy. I'm more curious about the flop call, was it something I should have just gotten out of immediately or was it smart to quickly read opponents check the odds and realize it was about even?
