I fold to river raise. You are either up against 99xx or a9xx. You will lose 98% of the time.

With no kickers, why not c/c flop and river to control pot? You're either WA/WB with this hand.

I agree that check/call river is best option on river because it induces action from akxx and minimizes losses vs a9 or 99, but why check call flop?

this is so wrong, the way to get paid off by akxx or worse is to bet the river. And he didn't check call the flop.

OP - this spot is so awkward because it is such a bad spot for him to have slowplayed A9. If your oppponent is a thinking player I think you be able to call, it is unlikely he is on a level where he can think "I never turn up with A9 here so I shouldn't bluff". However there are enough opponents out there who will think "lol I flopped the nuts, I slowplay u, I so tricky" and you can fold against those guys, they never wake up with less on the river.

If the river was say a T you have a very clear fold after this action.
