I was unsure of this spot. I mean its one of the stronger draws i can hope to hit with my hand. But I was unsure whether it is strong enough to play threeway - I mean I can be behind TJ and they could have some kind of higher flush/combo draw.

i think ur call preflop is close u dont have big enough stack to call with suited conectors
on flop is ugly ur not geting the right odds to hit a flush ur geting less than then 2:1 pot odds if MP2 fold and u migh be drawing dead ex JcTc or might get redraw vs 2pairs or some kind of a combo pair with 1 :club: for ex. KhJc i
n ur situation u have flush draw and a pair ur geting right odds but is ugly couse u might hit 9 or 8 but that dont help u vs KQ JT and if we say that ur flush draw is only live u got to fold
ugly spot thats why i dont like to just call preflop with that stack with suited conectors

if i played this hand i'll raise it preflop to 2400 and try to steal this pot


i dont like limping here too much because your stack is pretty small compared to the blinds.
your M should be at least 20 to make such a play profitable because you need good implied odds to do so.
but ok you have good position and its cheep so i dont really blame you for a limp here.
on the flop i go broke.
you have a pair + a flushdraw so you do good against twopairs, TPTK but you have a lot of trouble against a set.
another flushdraw is not that likely and even here you have good equity because if he has something like AcTc you still have a pair right now which might be good to win the hand at the end.
so i would not fold here with good odds a small stack and a good chance to build a monster stack
