Garbage
 

Minor hand but I was unsure of how to proceed.
5-5 live action game. Villian is a tight player with $4-5K in front of him who hasn't been caught bluffing and hasn't lost a showdown in the hour I'm playing.
I appear to be a weak player intimidated by the table. I have $1,200.
I have J6 off in first blind.
3 limpers (it's unusual for no one to raise).
I check, 2nd blind checks.
$25 in pot.
Flop is 9-4-2r.
Checked around.
Turn is J.
I lead out with a $20 bet.
2nd blind folds. Villian, who is in MP, calls. LP limper folds.
$70 in pot.
Turn is a 7 (not completing a flush).
What's your play (and why)?

I'd check/call. only T8 got there, but you need to post suits- I assume the J made a twoflush on board?

the problem is that your hand might as well be faceup. you gain nothing by betting J no kicker for value as everything you beat calls/raises and everything you don't folds. let him bluff his missed hand so you can keep making money with yours.
