with less than 9BBs, PF, your only play was AI. If you didn't understand that rule before, this hand should help you get it. Without running the numbers, you probably do have pot odds to draw to your 7 outs (adding one out for backdoor flush) combined with the possibility of a bluff. However to avoid such painful decisions, and to gain a little FE, go AI PF.

Oh, I should've made it more clear. The "PL" in the header means Pot Limit.

Your answer was still helpfull though. Thanks

Edit: Why the [censored] did BB bet all-in (&gt;pot) if it was PL? I'm confused. I must have mistanken some of the tournaments. I'm dumb as dumb can be.

However I would still like people to judge my call on the flop given my brainfart pre-flop

Well you have ~45,000 chips if you fold the flop, which is ok to play with, but you are the BB next so then you're down to 37,000. I personally fold the flop, you got no piece of it and have chips left to do a little damage with.

The converter shows it as a NL game, not PL.
