Congrats on getting lucky. I call the 1 bet preflop, fold after the raise and 3 bet.

Once you're in, I think the play is fine.

Having the best hand at showdown of those 21.29% hands: ~ 4%
Joy and elation reading the chat box when that 4% comes through: Priceless

fold preflop....twice.

I understand why people might advocate folding when it's two back around pre-flop (I wouldn't).... but what's wrong with the first time?

I think 64s is going to be extremely difficult to play profitably, especially as only 2 players have already limped in. So I'd fold preflop, and two back to you I think it's also a fold. Post flop was played fine IMO.

I don't think this makes sense. Suppose you have a backfloor flush draw. There are 10 turn cards that will give you a clean 9 out draw (21%) - by your logic this means you should call a flop with only the backdoor draw if you are getting better than 4:1 odds?
