I think my hand is good enough to call down, but raising I think nets me little value, doesnt protect my hand, and makes it harder for me to fold if I get raised or bet into on the river, is this line good?

Raising doesn't protect your hand, but it gets you a ton of value. Raise the turn.

yea i think it is fine using WA/WB is pretty powerful. I wouldnt raise anywhere on this nasty board. .5/1 players are terrible and they can have anything, even like a 6 high flush.

Fold preflop! Q9o sucks, even with that overlay. Do you have a read on MP1's preflop raising range?

He's made a late position post and is getting immediate 6-to-1 odds - this is an easy call to take a look at the flop.
