I fold on the flop.

Fold the flop and clean the hand up so it doesn't give me a headache

[Raiseren1]

Why should I fold the flop? He probably just made a CB

[Dan Bitel]

you fold flop cos you're OOP, the last 2 streets are next to never going to be checked down and you have no idea what card you want to see on turn and river except a 9 (2 outs)

Also, a 9 could be the worst card in the deck for hero in this situation. Fold.

If you really think he's doing a CB here then you have to raise on the flop to have a chance of winning the pot.
You do not want to draw to a 9 high flush, and there's a good chance he has a Q. I would fold the flop too.

Since you called and continued with the hand, I would fold on the river. There's a good chance he has a higher flush, why would he bet with a 8 high flush or worse?

First clean up the HH before posting ie remove all the coloroff etc so that basically moves, pot and cards are left.

One should not start of seeing monsters every where.

But to clear up your mind I would c/r this flopp.
With just one over and a 3 suited board it is just as scary to anybody else.
A c/r at least lets you in on how much he likes his hand
If you turn passive on this flopp its an invitation to have the pot stolen.
Basically I would lead as first choice, and c/r as a second against an unknown.I dont fold this.

Remeber he cant see your hole cards!
And he limped into the pot.
He could easily be on a draw, hold some A, basically any thing, but rarely superstrong
You should already be giving this some consideration on flopp. Will I continue with my agression or not. If you show weakness someone will more often then not exploit it.

You chose a very weak line given no read, there are times to let the opponent bet the pot for you, this was not one.

The turn check behind from him is too not excactly strong

I would instacall the riverbet, might even raise it at times. But since I know little about my opponent yet I`d pay to learn a little more and I think a fair number of times you win this pot.

Fold more often then you raise, but raise more often then you call in general.

[tufat23]

he bet either a Kd or no d. Figure out a bluff % for him and go with you're gut. Given no other info i fold

[Rockatansky]

If you're willing to call an additional bet from Villain, then why not just bet out the turn?
