Default (200NL) Your Basic Top Set on a Monotone Board Question

Excuse the tourney donk question, but what am I supposed to be doing here? Is this ever a hand thats not made? I know in a Tournament I call this very quickly. BTW, No read on either Villain as I just sat down.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $2 BB (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

UTG ($424.35)
UTG+1 ($223.35)
MP1 ($194.75)
MP2 ($201)
MP3 ($159.45)
CO ($276.25)
Hero ($199.80)
SB ($163.05)
BB ($197)

Preflop: Hero is Button with T, T.
3 folds</font>, MP2 calls $2, 2 folds</font>, Hero raises to $10</font>, 1 fold</font>, BB calls $8, MP2 calls $8.

Flop: ($31) 9, T, 6 (3 players)
BB checks, MP2 checks, Hero bets $22, BB calls $22, MP2 raises to $191, Hero ????

Yes, this is often a hand that you beat. Many players will play As + pair, lower set, or the naked As like this. And, if he has a flush, you have outs to fill up.

What's your read on villain here? I'll make this call only with a great read.
Since this is full ring on PS with no apparent read, I'm laying this down, this is a small flush or straight, almost always.

No one ever c/r's the flop with a made flush.

I played full ring on PS for quite a long time, and every time I made a call like this it was into a made hand,
Unless it was against a short stack.

If he flips over his hand as a flush or straight, we need to win 36% to make this a profitable call. We are nearly getting those odds to win as is, and the chance (which I believe is greater than you do) he has a lower set or is semibluffing makes this an easy call.

He has to have something other than a flush so rarely here for this to be +EV.
