99 vs tag regular

[vancouverspecial]

Hi all, First 2+2 post... I have lurked for a little while now. I've mostly played live until recently, and have about 30k hands at NL$100


$0.50/$1.00, Effective stacks $110 - 6 handed

Villian is 18/13 over about 1000 hands. Full Tilt regular TAG. Villian has either played overpairs very carefully after I've played back at him in the past, or pushed ai on the flop. I think he respects my play(22/16/3.5). Villain c-bets 95% of flops

Dealt to Hero [9s 9h]
villian raises to $4 (Cut-off)
Hero calls $3.50
*** FLOP *** [8c Th 5d]
Hero checks
Villian bets $8
Hero raises to $25
Villian calls $17
*** TURN *** [8c Th 5d] [5h]
Hero checks
Villian bets $94.95, and is all in
Hero??? (pot is $60, I have 75ish left)

After checking my hand face open?

I didn't lead flop as i feel many TAGs will put even put a raise in with ak/aq type hands as they know I plan to fold to resistance. (I guess I lead about 40%, c/r 40%, c.c 20% on this type of flop)

This does not look like a bluff. Probably AT or OverPair. Fold it.
A 3-bet w/ 99 preflop could have defined the situation better

Are you in the BB or SB?

[illuminati]

Don't raise the flop.

[vancouverspecial]

Im in the sb. I will 3bet this spot, but not always.
Illuminati, when and how do we define our hand against an aggro player is we c/c?

[illuminati]

Why would you want to define your range? Doing so is very rarely +ev. You let him play perfectly with your flop play (folds worse/raises or calls with > 99). If he is mental just call him down barring really bad turn/river cards. I think you can fold the flop, this dude is never putting more in with anything you beat.

Umm....fold on the flop? Villian's range is top 13 percent of hands preflop...of which case you are betting most of them on this sort of flop. C/C flop is best.

c/r'ing in this spot blows tbh. I mean if he calls you don't know much except that he likes his hand -- he could have Tx, an overpair, str8 draw, etc.

c/c flop is much better. Then on the turn you can b/f, c/f, or c/c again.
