Default Crying call, or just cry?

This hand came at the end of an extremely miserable session of poker, and I'm not sure how much that was affecting my thinking. Primary villain just sat down a few hands ago, so no read.

Party Poker 5/10 Hold'em (9 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is UTG with T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, UTG+1 calls, MP1 calls, <font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, BB calls.

Flop: (8.40 SB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 raises</font>, MP1 folds, BB calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 caps</font>, BB folds, Hero calls.

Turn: (9.20 BB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 bets</font>, Hero calls.

River: (11.20 BB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 bets</font>, Hero folds.

Final Pot: 12.20 BB

Hmmm, bad card for you, makes you wonder what he'd go beserk on the flop with that you beat.

I fold too.

If I thought I would play with him again in the future, I'd call just to find out whether he has the flush or just a set (now boat) or trip 9s. (If it turns out that he has A7 or something like that, that would be even more interesting.) This call would be almost solely for information for next time.

Why not call the flop raise and then sng the turn on a non-spade?

I probably call the river, getting 12:1. I sort of want to know if he's going to cap a flush draw (forcing BB to call 2 cold) or if he really likes TPTK.

75 (although highly unlikely). I don't think I'm good enough to fold although it's probably better.

Im not sure how the party 5/10 is, but any online 5/10 I play in, is generally pretty tight. Sure u run into idiots, but it seems to be far less at this limit.

You raised preflop, then he raies u / caps it on the flop...Im going with the flush, I dont think he do it with top board pair, maybe a set at the most. But he would hit up up on the turn if he had a set, so...either way I fold the river because what Im putting him on is the spade draw.
