Re: $40/$80 hand, pocket nines.
I believe that many players overplay overpairs.... I think in this situation, your hand is not that strong based on the betting and the board.... I lose my most money when I lose pocket pair to a bigger pocket pair when they are both overpairs.... there are so many hand combinations that are beating you, or will be beating you by the end of this hand, and it does not look like either of your opponents are going anywhere. I would fold the flop. Had you not raised preflop.... it is very possible that draws/8's are more common in your opponents hands.
