Your fold is pretty conservative. Not wrong, because A7s is not a great hand to play 3-handed (ignore the small all-in) but more on the conservative side. You should be playing it at least once in a while to see the flop.

I would probably call suited for odds and hope to get a FD or a flop like you got but I'm folding A7os all day because that 9x open seems trappy as hell so folding A7s can't be a bad play.

I'm not folding everytime but with the 9 times BB I had the feeling to be behind big time.
of course A7s is not a fold everytime

It's a freeroll so keep that in mind as well with the 9bb bet.

so if you say it was conservative and regarding a freeroll a call would not be a bad play in general ?

No, you'd get a flop for a fifth of your stack or so. If you don't hit it hard, you can still get away pretty easily with about 40bb.

Like everyone said, it is a freeroll, but because it is a freeroll is why folding is always correct. I think ATs is the very bottom of my calling range there.
Also with MP1 raising third of his stack preflop and 2 calls (one of which is all in), I'm not sure what you're beating with A7s only even if it's a freeroll.

I have to agree with this. In a four way pot you don't have very good odds of coming out of this with lots of chips. The flop is obviously unfortunate in hindsight, but typically you will probably find yourself in a position where only one A drops and now you look at top pair and chase because it's a freeroll. You can find better situations to be in to win chips, instead of regretting a rare play.

In the long run, playing with hands of type Ah will be unprofitable.

mp1 raise 9х, so it's easy fold in your position.

No reason to call here, unless you are playing at Pokerstars. In that case, your A7 is a favorite against AA, KK, QQ and such. :) Jokes aside, no reason to call, you might as well play bingo in that case
