Default Re: 99 facing river raise

i raise 99 utg here. i would call expecting to lose. my play may change if i knew his postflop aggression factor and his went to/won at sd %. and with an overcard on the flop i may check/call the river to induce a bet from a lesser hand unless you KNOW that he will pay you of with an 8 or 77, etc. in these scenarios(pp with an overcard on the board) where you meet no resistance on the flop and turn it takes a certain level of judgement on the river: are you going to be called by a hand worse than yours? you don't want to lose a value bet, but if it is only called if you are likely beat, a check to induce a bet from a lesser hand could be the play.
