Default Set of 9s but what can I beat?

Villain is a winning, solid player, TAG with an emphasis on the T. Given the board texture, does he ever make this check-raise on the end with a smaller set, two pair, or anything I can beat?

No, bet more on the flop so he can't backdoor a flush like that profitably.

And consider a RR preflop. (edit: maybe not in FR, idk)

edit: of course you very well could be ahead, but you still can't call.

I rr PF. I bet like $7 on the flop. Bet $15 on the turn. Probably shove river but this is full ring so it may be a call.

then again, you may have induced a bluff with those small bets. But wouldn't a solid tag just call on the river knowing that he's not getting called by worse?

BET MORE ON EVERY STREET. He makes that with like AA/KK if he's gay tricky. Why would he cr on river with that scary card anyway, looks more like a bluff to me. Maybe he has you beat dunno. I call.

AA and certainly KK aren't in his range.

Sure not a high % of the time that's why I said TRICKY. This is FTP you can't be sure about anything.
