Jacks look good at the flop, but the betting is scary...

You're a champion today, Nick.

I was a milisecond away from clicking raise there, but... the UTG was a pretty good player I thought and I was worried.

A good player will not only raise better hands than JJ here. Far from.

You have somewhere between 2 and 4-ish outs; I fold this cheese on the flop given that this is the one time this blue moon that the raiser found something other than the 'call any' button.

3bet flop and go from there.

I really don't get it. Why should I 3-bet a flop if I really feel I'm beat? How is that not spewing? I'm thinking maybe I should've just folded there.

Most people will raise the flop with top pair. You have an overpair. UTG could be raising A9s or K9s here, thinking that his nines are best. 3bet it and if it is capped then call it down.

Folding there would be awful. 3-bet, lead the turn.
