Nacha technically you are correct as it uses the letter bor bplaa, but how would a English, a Swedish, a German pronounce the spelling as you show?
each differently, therefore for at least one of them, it is spelt incorrectly as all you are trying to do is give an example of the sound in Thai.

Does all that make sense?? hope so, cos already bored of explaining it and although not as good an answer, nor as long as JB would/will do, it was my try.

i know... but for me it's easier to see how it's written in Thai
just bad that there's no soundfile to listen available for poom pui (or however you write it 5555).
