It's really hard to get called by worse 2-3 streets with 9T in this line, even if river bricks. The fact that villain bet into 2 pretty strong ranges on a flop where he should check a lot even HU rings some bells. Another thing is that you will be playing a big pot with a relatively weak value hand where a lot of turn & river cards will shift equities a lot. Id rather stick to raising flop 3way with equity to the nuts and sets where you are less vulnerable to bad turn cards. As played I think you are better off checking turn or block betting to get called by AK/AQ which will be the majority of made hands you beat that might want to continue vs a small bet but not vs a big one. OTR I don't see any worse made hands that you will get value from by blocking. I'm x/f because I don't think they will turn AK/AQ into a bluff often enough.
You should probably fold preflop too.

Thank you man! I might call too much OOP. Sometimes I am tempted when I see these pretty hands. I ended up check/folding. Good bluff from villain if it wasnt value
