Tough situation.

I'd call and hope for a spade or a 9.

I'd also call the turn with the intent of check-folding a non-spade non-9 river. You're getting 6.5-1 on the turn; even if we count your spades as half outs (reverse implied odds) it's worth a call. 4.5 spade outs+2 9s=6.5 outs which gives you decent odds to call. You're going to have to c-call or bet/call a spade river though.

Hero has a flush draw, did you miss that? The pot is 7.5 SB now, I can't imagine folding here.

It`s probably best to call this down. Folding is awful imo.
I`d consider a raise on a non- [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] broadway turn with a better read on villain.

Even counting flush draw as good 50% of the time you are still getting odds to call

reverse implied odds anyone?

ya I know, that's why I counted half your outs as clean...even 1/3 of outs as clean is close to a call
