Too Passive?

No read. Session just starting. When my raise got called, I thought there was a good chance I was up against Q with a weak kicker or 9 with a better kicker.

I'd consider bet-folding the turn (for the fold equity), and checking behind on the riv.

the bet/fold on turn might be a good idea, but i would personally have played it the way you did.

Raise preflop is interesting, I'd only do it vs tight blinds though.

If your going to blind steal, continue the aggression through the hand and hit them on the turn too.
