      BU had VP$IP ~55%, PFR ~ 3%. Also don`t judge me b/c there are only 5 players, was 9 few seconds ago before that hand :?

      I know there was big leak at this hand, but i`d love to know what was the best play here.

      Hand converted with online PokerStrategy.com hand converter:

      The preflop raise should have been 6BB, due to the two limpers, which means you could have pushed on the flop as a c-bet.

      BU is just lucky to hit his 9, your range is way ahead of his.

      So why did you post this hand then ?(

      Anyways as said before pre should be bigger for value so $0.60 and then if you get 1 caller you can comfortably shove all-in postflop or bet/call
      As played I would bet/fold since your outs aint clean (A9/K9) and you dont get the odds in case your outs ARE clean
