Default only interesting hand in awhile

In the midst of a losing streak - 4 sessions in a row, down
120BB. Not getting good starting hands, and not getting
good flops for the most part, only 2 bad beats I can
remember.

This is one of the only interesting hands that has come up.

I'd like some analysis about how you play this for either
hand if you think the player in question is fairly solid.

Live 3/6 game, mostly loose passive.

I'm UTG+1 with the black aces. I raise. Folds to MP
player who calls and then to big blind who 3 bets, and I
cap it. MP calls, BB calls.

Flop is kc qs 9c. BB bets out, I raise, MP folds, BB 3-bets. I call and go into call down mode as 4h, 6d come off.

BB showed down 9h 9d.

How would you play this in my place assuming BB is a solid
player? (He was in fact a noob - he'd been in every
hand for 3 orbits before this came up. Had won one pot
with a good hand and another with KTo called in the BB
after a couple of raises.)

How would you play it had you been in the BB with the 99?

Thanks,
Phil

Default Re: only interesting hand in awhile

Very occasionally I have 3-bet from the blinds with 99 to get a feel for PFRs hand. Not usually though.

In this hand, If I was Big Blind, I would have just called PF. Bet the flop, and then check-raised the turn.

If I were you I would have played it the same.
