What are you wondering about...you likely have the best hand and you like money right?

Did you mean to include some river action in your post?

I guess you could have check called the flop and bet the turn intending to 3-bet if you somehow knew the 9 would come...but that seems a bit impractical.

So you think it's a clear-cut bet on the river? And what happens if he reraises me?

the only reason you wouldn't bet that river was so you could checkraise it. Bet/call.

easy river bet, call a raise

I 3 bet the flop as well, unless hes the type that will cap for a free card, in which case I call flop and donk turn.

You raised or you bet...? unless you are leaving out some of the action the first person to put money in the pot on a given street is said to "bet." You can only "raise" after soemone else has already bet. You know this right?
