T9s in big pot

No reads.

Wasn't sure what to do against the turn check-raise or river bet because the pot had gotten quite large.

Fold to the turn check raise. He cold called a flop raise. I doubt he's bluffing. The board isn't very coordinated. He's probably got trips.

This brings up a question I have had for some time. How do you fold to this CR and not appear vulerable to a CR on the turn. That is, how can you prevent being a victim of subsequent bluff CRs on the turn?

My guess is, you mean for future hands. You simply re-raise with a strong hand. In this situation, the vil cold called two bets on the flop to prevent the flop raiser from slowing on the turn so he could raise a turn bet. If all you have at the turn is TPMK, you are behind.

Most of the time your opponents will be too dumb/disinterested/apathetic to notice it.

If your opponents do pick up on that, then simply start calling down a little more often, just don't do anything drastic.
