wanted to c/r flop - my hand is too weak for this, right?

I am c/c flop and think we're too weak for a c/r. Turn bet it good as we're ahead after he checks the flop most of the time unless he has like 22 (can't see a limp at 50/100 w/ 99 or TT). River I would be betting as well and reluctantly mucking to a shove. Villain's line looks really trappy to me. Either opponent has QJ or has you beat, I am folding riv too.

Why not bet the flop?
You likely have the best hand and he might call with 9x or a lower pair, right?

Yep, would have been better for sure...
Each time someone limps UTG kinda short I try to play it smouve, which is obviously not fine at party. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
