<font color="black">Preflop:</font> Hero is dealt 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (6 Players)
Hero raises to $2, UTG+1 folds, MP folds, CO calls $2, SB folds, BB folds

<font color="black">Flop:</font> ($4.75) 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)

I would have folded that too. Clear decision.

Not betting the turn would be a lot better

Why bet the turn? Any straight/flush are calling, worse hands are folding.

Yep, check the turn. After your bet it's easy for him to shove. If you check the turn, he might make an error in betting an amount that gives you the odds to call. You have 10 outs and you stack him every time the board pairs.

I still think there might be a case to be made for calling, if the turn bet had been pot-sized. Are you sure if it's a straight or a flush? What's wrong with him hitting a set of sevens and trying to scare you off of a pot? Aren't the 6 and the Jack of spades your gin cards? You've got twelve probable outs to beat a flush or straight.

The turn card completes so many draws. I would like to see a showdown in this spot playing out of position with a set and a straight flush draw. I would check the turn but as played fold to the all in raise.

10 outs to the full house or 4 of a kind + 2 outs for the straight flush.
