Why raise the flop and then pass up the free card. You can showdown for &lt;= to 1BB and possibly fill up? If you're flop raise got JJ, say, to check the turn that's huge. If Villain has the nine, he made a terrible mistake checking to you.

Why would you raise the flop for a free card here? If we are drawing we clearly do not have the odds to continue and by checking the turn we are giving villian a free card here not taking one if we need to improve this is a clear fold on the flop.
