Re: did I just get scared off the best hand?
4th:I believe that if he had the trip 9's,he would check rather than bet.This would look natural & tend to be deceptive since a 9 has been exposed.Looks like he's just trying to represent the trips. Raise & try to find out.Then,If he check raises you on 5th,you can be sure you're screwed.LOL.
5th:It looks like you encouraged him to keep representing trip 9's & then gave up when he did it.Better to call.Then,if he checks 6th,bet.If he bets 6th,fold.5th is too early to believe him,imo.
By the way,seat 7's apparent strong draw is not really that fearsome.There were 3 hearts out against him on 3rd,so he probably didn't stay for the flush,& 2 A's & 2 sixe's are out blocking the possible straight.
