Default Bellagio 80/160 4 bet flop then check turn?

I haven't been playing long..it's a 6 handed or so game at about 8pm weekenight. I haven't played many hands and haven't down so far. I open 99 on the button and just the bb calls. He seems pretty solid, thinking player. Flop is 884r and he CRs I 3 bet and he 4 bets...I just call...planned to call down here? turn is T and he checks...I think and ck behind very confussed not wanting to get CRed and wanting to just show it down for 1 bet on the river...river is 4 he bets and I call...
Thanks,
Donny

It's a confusing situation. I never know what to make of this sort of thing. It is possible he has something like 66 or 77 and the ten has slowed him down, but it's really hard to make a solid read in that spot.

I like big pots, bet the turn call the checkraise and call the river

your in a steal spot he knows this and is willing to overplay any pair or A high in many spots...

if the turn was an ace and he checked I would be more inclined to check behind, because he puts you on an ace, how can he put you on a ten ????

I dont think an 8 will 4-bet the flop, but would instead wait for the turn to check-raise once his little "I have a piece of the flop and its enough to check-raise but not 4-bets" move "fails".

Your opponent's play screams two high cards to me, and he figures he is in the lead after your blind steal attempt. I would play it like Nomar suggests in this spot.

He had 55 and MHIG. I agree that a turn bet is best here.

Did you happen to catch his name? Or perhaps a description?
