Default 50NL, 99 in MP, turned str8, whats your move?

Just got to to the table, so no reads on villains. How do you feel about a push here? If not a push, how much to bet?

MP2 ($39.05)
Hero ($39.50)
CO ($60.85)
Button ($19.25)
SB ($64.20)
BB ($50)
UTG ($31.55)
UTG+1 ($26.25)
UTG+2 ($49.25)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
[color=#666666]3 folds</font>, MP1 calls $0.50, [color=#666666]1 fold</font>, [color=#CC3333]Hero raises to $2</font>, CO calls $2, [color=#666666]3 folds</font>, MP1 calls $1.50.

Flop: ($6.75) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] [color=#0000FF](3 players)</font>
MP1 checks, [color=#CC3333]Hero bets $4</font>, CO calls $4, MP1 calls $4.

Turn: ($18.75) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] [color=#0000FF](3 players)</font>
MP1 checks, [color=#CC3333]Hero ??? </font>

I like a push here. You have built up a decent pot (&gt;$18) and I am pretty you have the best hand. The only other option would be a CR if you thought the CO might bet. This could trap both players for more money by CRing all in.

On the other hand, I can't think of too many cards that would concern me on the river except one of your other 9s. A case could be made for getting in value bets on the turn and river. That said, my move would be to push.

What would a push accomplish except letting set/2 pair get away from there hand. In this situation you want to extract chips out of worse hands and i think you can do this with 2/3. Rivers a blank then you can move the rest of your chips in.

maybe im playing too scared here, but im afraid of the flush draw (either one now) ... probably about 1/3 of the deck is a scare card for me on the river here
