This is in a 50/1 game, I just read SSh and im trying to act accordingly. My question is what would you do in this situation.

Easy call, IMO. But I'm almost always wrong. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

i'm not thrilled about calling that flop w/ the PFR still to act behind you, etc, but once you've gotten to the turn, you have to call.

so i shouldnt have called on the flup two overs and a backdoor ?

Fold preflop.

it's iffy, b/c the pfr not betting there may indicate he flopped something pretty big (JJ?) and is trying to get someone to bet for him (of course, this is very read-dependent) so there's a big risk of a c/r, which is exactly what you got and could have very easily have come back 2 bets to you. something tells me some of your overs are tainted (QJ, KJ?) or no good at all.

once you get to that turn, though, you gotta call.

1) Fold preflop
2) Fold to the raise on the flop
3) Call the turn

he actually was check raising pocket nines and caught a set on the turn and i was drawing dead. Im thinking i should have folded preflop

Yes, and it's not even close. KQo SUCKS to a raise unless you are in the BB. Learn this now.

*note - sometimes a 3bet is in order if original raiser is maniac/retard
