9 outs on 2 streets is about 35% to hit. So I'm guessing that it works out for you about 35% of the time. (It just doesn't feel that way because of negativity bias.) That means you are only going to complete it 1/3 of the time. So mathematically, you need about 2:1 on pot odds. So what is the "all in" that you are asking to call?Would you call an all in for most of your chips of your chips in MTT on a flush draw on the flop?
I’ve done it a couple of times usually doesn’t work out for me.
Yes I would call all in. It has happened to many times that I try to build the stack and get beating by the turn river combo with a full house. If I would have gone all in then perhaps I would have made the person think twice about betting.Would you call an all in for most of your chips of your chips in MTT on a flush draw on the flop?

If the pot is 100 and I'm being asked to call 900... no, I'm not doing that. (1000:900 = 10:9 < 2:1 ❌).
If the pot is 100 and someone shoves for another 10... yeah, that's fine. (110:10 = 10:1 > 2:1 ✅).
If the pot is 100 and someone shoves for another 100... there's your borderline. (200:100 = 2:1 ≈ 2:1 🤔)
Event if I have the pot odds to call it, I have to take into consideration what it might cost me. If I have 110 chips left, how will I feel with those remaining 10 chips in the 2/3 chance that I don't hit it? That would be kind of a deal-breaker on your tournament. I would be less likely to want to take the chance. OTOH, if I am 1000 deep, those last 900 remaining is still a playable stack, right? Sure, I'll call the shove then (given the pot odds).
Ok... how about this. If you give me $1000 for the opportunity, we will flip a coin. If it's heads, I'll give you $1010 in return. If it's tails I keep your $1000.To be honest, I do not pay attention to all these mathematical calculations. Yes, maybe I should be wrong, but I'm doing at this moment what I feel, so to speak what the heart commands, if you feel that you should call or go all in, then you don't have to hesitate, JUST DO IT, regardless of the pot and regardless of your stack.
