help me, I'm lost with pocket 9's

Normally I don't think this a 3-bet preflop against average opposition, but when the pfr is a 60/30 type the next guy in has an expanded cold calling range and considering he is already kind of lag to begin with (29/13ish I think) 99 is WAY ahead of the range of these two jokers so bump it to 3-bets and get everybody else the [censored] out of your hand.

I agree with you as far as equity is concerned, but I didn't 3 bet because I was certain I would be playing the hand against three opponents--there is no way UTG folds. Call it a place for me to improve, but playing pocket nines in a big pot against three opponents when overs flop is not my forte. But I'm pretty sure Ed Miller would tell me to suck it up and quit being a wuss, too.
