Default 99 hand

2nd hand at the table, villain unknown. I played this like crap and it felt gay.

When i was raised on the flop i put villain on a FD or maybe a middle PP. I was going to raise the turn but for some reason i just felt beat.

That doesnt mean sh*t so whats the best line here? Just 3bet the flop and lead the turn?

Just to point it out, 99 is strong equity wise at the moment, and we'd love to punish overcards for raising here. Calling down is exactly what overs would want.

You did play this hand like crap but I think your avatar is the reason you feel gay.
