Default HU SNG two pair... do i overvalue my hand here?

Poker Stars, $6 + $0.25 NL Hold'em Tournament, 10/20 Blinds, 2 Players
LegoPoker Hand History Converter

BB: 1,375
Hero (SB): 1,625

Pre-Flop: (30) J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (SB)
<font color="red">Hero raises to 60</font>, BB calls 40

Flop: (120) T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
BB checks, <font color="red">Hero bets 75</font>, <font color="red">BB raises to 220</font>, Hero calls 145

Turn: (560) 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">BB bets 300</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to 1,345 and is All-In</font>, BB calls 795 and is All-In

River: (2,750) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players - 1 is All-In)

Results: 2,750 Pot
BB showed Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (a straight, Nine to King) and WON 2,750 (+1,375 NET)
Hero showed J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (two pair, Jacks and Nines) and LOST (-1,375 NET)

I thought he was capable of making this on a draw...

I reraise flop and I am happy to get it in. Two straight draws out there, no need to get tricky and just call the flop. Don't post results next time. I see you do this everytime and it sucks. You don't overvalue your hand here. Just reraise flop.

Not much you could do .

There are other hands that may have raised the flop that are worse than yours such as :

10-9 , q-j , A-q, 98, etc .

This is pretty much a setup hand and you're most likely going to go broke. If this guy was super passive/tight, you might be able to make a hero fold, but it'd take a sweet read to do it. Maybe even call flop, fold turn. 90% of the time you're going broke though.

I agree with Vinetou, don't post the results on the hand. It does not matter what the results are as long as you make the best decisions.

You can post the results when the hand has been discused enough if someone is interrested in knowing the result, but never post it in the first post.

Also I do not believe you over value your hand here, if anything I would get it in on the flop because there is both a flush and str draw on the flop.
