Default What is my move here?

I haven't been at the table very long and have no reads. I always have a hard time making decisions when faced with a bet like this...

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $1 BB (4 handed)

UTG ($54.65)
Button ($47)
SB ($37.40)
Hero ($41.55)

Preflop: Hero is BB with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
UTG folds, Button calls $1, SB folds, Hero checks.

Flop: ($2.50) T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, Button checks.

Turn: ($2.50) 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(2 players)</font>
Hero bets $3, Button raises to $15

What now?? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

I would think that because you were BB that the button placed you on a bad hand. Since you checked the flop he probably assumed that your were just trying to free play your hand, because it had basically been a free play up until then since you were the BB. I would think that he might have made two pair and he was trying to drive your potential draw out by betting big.

Do you have the results of the hand?

My guess is that he has a two pair higher than a 5. If he had a full house, I don't see why he would raise so much when the pot is that tiny and the risk of you folding is high.
