how do you extract the most in this hand? i think the question is on the turn but i guess there are other flop options

Check raise the turn. It is certainly risky since a free card stinks, but with the 9 pairing I think villian is betting this turn almost every time.

I would actually Bet/call this turn. Once the nine hits, your hand is not strong enough to checkraise IMO becuz of the time times you get 3 bet by 9x, a hand the villain can easily have given the preflop/flop action. Plus it is possible, but I'll admit rare, that the CO will check behind if he has a hand like JT, Two spades, or a hand like KK that he intended to trap you with by just calling preflop. I realize that most people would not take a free card in this situation but nonetheless it is a factor that leans me towards bet/calling this turn.

Also, I wouldve 3 bet the flop in this situation just becuz there are so many turn cards that may lead me to cancel my turn checkraise strategy.

IMO you are giving up youre turn c/r way too often. THe guy probably has an ace.

You may be right, on this board, I might be giving up on checkraising the turn too often, which is why I would 3 bet the flop and lead the turn. As long as I get extra money in on one street I am satisfied with the results.

It is possible though that I may be 3betting the flop/leading the turn too much in relation to calling the flop raise and checkraising the turn. But I am Ok with this leak. When im OOP, I will usually play my hands faster than normal.
