Default 99 on a horrible board! ($1/2)

Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is SB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, Button calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, BB calls, Button calls.

Flop: (6 SB) K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB folds, Button calls.

Turn: (4 BB) A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, Button calls.

River: (6 BB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, Button checks.

Final Pot: 6 BB

Villain was loose and had average agression, didnt really stand out though.

Tried to pick up the pot on the flop but no luck. The turn bought the flush draw, possible straights and an A. Is there any value in my bet?

On the river what do I do if I am bet into. I think I should fold but would hate to do it [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] Is there any hand I can beat even though I was called all the way.

The turn bet is read dependent IMO.
The river is a check-fold.

Check-fold the turn. Most opponents will fold this flop if they totally missed, so by calling he is telling you that he has a piece or a draw. The turn card either completed a draw or paired up a gutshot that beats you, so it's doubtful he's going to fold the turn if he didn't fold the flop. Check-fold.

I thought so, need to try and pick the value bets more carefully as this is more of a bluff with little chance of succeeding.

Needless to say, villain just couldn't let his pretty hand go <font color="white"> 77 </font> [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I like the turn bet--you are representing the Ace. I'd check the river as you did. The players at the table give a lot more action after they see that you are willing to fire with an underpair.

Obviously fold to a turn raise here.
