Ok everyone says raise with 9's, but do you 3-bet? Should I check-raise the flop. And obviously I mucked up by not leading the turn. Could I have played this any worse? hahaPokerStars 0.25/0.50 Hold'em (10 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cxPreflop: Hero is BB with [9s], [9c].

I wouldn't raise 99 here PF. You can't isolate because of the cold caller.I'd c/r the flop and lead the turn.

Missed a lot of value here after the flop. No need to slow-play.I would raise the flop and lead out on the turn. Hopefully you will be raised and have callers inbetween.
Nothing to read here. Move along.

We've already been over pf.On the flop, you have to raise. Look at all the draws. Straight draws and flush draws always call. A 9 is calling. Overcards/pp's might call. And 8's are probably reraising.There are a lot of holdings your opponents will call with. To quote Miller:They can't call if you don't bet.

I was hoping to obviously check/raise the turn and get some bigger bets in but that plan blew. I thought the call instead of raise preflop was ok, but I should have c/r the flop and led the turn. OH well, live and learn.

Pre-flop is fine, you're not getting anyone to fold and there are enough people in that playing for the set is probably best. Maybe being results oriented here, but I think bet/call on the flop and leading the turn may be the best line here. UTG+2 most likely has high cards and will call you down.
