What were you calling for? If on the flop you believe you only have 5 outs fold. If you believe he has a T you are drawing dead on the turn so you obviously are assuming he does not have one. If he does not have a T you are effectively second pair vs an aggressive player.

SB can defend here I think but table dynamic makes it weird bc BB will shove so much and you're never calling that 9 bb shove w 97s

OTF call is fine but you could def have some 3b here, I think your call range has much more T and 7x then his button open range (although its close in my mind), tldr call is fine

OTT is tricky, the 3b otf would help a tone bc you can gauge his strength and he prob wont 4b AT so you have some protection there, i think in this spot the answer really isn't as black and white as polar bear makes it seem. I think the 10k flop bet can be j a c-bet a lot of the times as you wont be the most comfortable on the flop. that would make it a call. On the other hand, your hand is very weak, you really only beat 75s,76s, some A3 K3 combos and bluffs. So I would say play style depended (both your preference and the history of your opponents actions)

OTR you have a bluff catcher, put him on spades? call, if not fold fast as hell

3/4 of your stack w 97s, on this texture, no thanks

In a PKO with a big enough bounty you certainly can.

Really, I wouldn't be calling this pre from the SB at a final table unless I was trying to get in a pot with BB to win their bounty.
