Fairly aggressive table. Always seemed to be action preflop. SB was the only real bad player besides myself. BB was plenty loose preflop but played well after that. MP was tight and cautious - saw him go to a showdown with AA and a 3rd one on the flop without making a bet. OK maybe he wasn't that good either.
Anyhow I wasn't thrilled to be in this hand but there I was with the bottom end of the straight. Really unhappy to see the board pair on the end and then get raised but only an idiot (me last week) would fold now.
Given that there was pretty much always a preflop raise should I even call with 89s? With the BB opening and the PF raiser yet to act do I fold the flop with the bottom end of the draw and 2 suited on board as well? Once I made my straight I don't think I could have played it much different but maybe someone thinks so?

Just noticed that we all had a turn at betting this. MP raised preflop. BB led on the flop. SB led on the turn. I led on the river. Equal opportunity betting in action.
