Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

SB: 86 BB
Hero (BB): 126.5 BB
UTG: 57 BB
CO: 105 BB
BTN: 276.5 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, Hero posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has 9♥ J♠

UTG raises to 2 BB, fold, fold, fold, Hero calls 1 BB

Flop: (4.5 BB, 2 players) J♣ J♥ 9♦
Hero checks, UTG bets 2.5 BB, Hero raises to 9 BB, fold,

How do I get value?
Calling flop and raising Turn or even calling Flop and Turn and shoving River?

Hard to get value here. I would check/call on flop and turn.
River bet 60% pot

That is my starters thought. Maybe better to wait untill an pro responds.
I would like to know their opinion, since I am trying to learn from your hand aswell.

I'm no pro, but the hand is too strong to check/raise for this very reason.
I suggest letting UTG bet since he seems to like his hand.
If he has an overpair, he can give us 3 streets of value even.

The problem is that if he has QQ+ and his card hits, we're sunk, but at the moment, we're miles ahead.
Best scenario: He has 99
Second best: He has straight draw
Third best: Overpair

Cheers,
VS
