67dd Draw vs fish range postflop shorthanded

I'm playing 300bb deep in a NL 1/2 game shorthanded. A fishy player with wide ranges limps UTG and has previously shoved 78s for about 125, I limp the button with 67dd, the aggressive SB raises to 15, higher level thinking player flats, fish flats, I flat with 67dd. The flop is 8d9d9h, action checks around to the fish who shoves AI for about 125.....
I think I am behind more of the shorstack fish's flush draws and other hands and my relative position is very bad since I don't know how the aggro SB and more TAGish BB will react to the AI.

How much are the other players playing?

A lot of variables to consider, especially chip stacks and what his tendencies are as far as betting/raising. Id consider us behind and with not much invested in just throwing this away. We could only be drawing to a straight flush draw seeing as how he might have a higher flush draw

the aggro SB shoved 200 preflop with AK and lost to a player who called with 88, he now has 400 and the BB TAG has me covered with over 600. I think it is ok to flat the 67dd preflop but then I would fold postflop.

I would just fold. The shove is obviously pretty strong. Your behind trip 9's, a higher flush draw, and of course, the boat. You're flipping with an 8. Your only ahead of a straight draw.
The other players behind you also complicate it since they are fairly deep stacked and will only call/raise when they are ahead of you.

If Villain had a weak nine they're trying to protect you're not getting odds to draw. I'm guessing that maybe you folded and you would have a hit a winning hand. But that's irrelevant. Poker is a game of math and calling (or raising) is money-losing (-EV).

Easy fold! Not invested in this pot, way too many hands that beat us if we complete are draws and most likely drawing dead to a str8 flush, save your chips and pick a better spot

I folded, the SB flats and the more TAGish BB minraises to 250 and then the SB shoves AI (I'm not sure if they followed the 2x rule). SB had AKdd, BB had K9ss, they run it 3 and the shorty wins 2/3 with a straight 67cc but the BB wins the larger side pot 3/3... I'm curious what your views are on possibly creating side pots vs deeper players?
