Pre Flop: (1.5 SB) Hero is MP2 with 9♣ 9♥
4 folds, Hero raises, 3 folds, SB calls, 1 fold

Flop: (5 SB) A♠ T♥ J♥ (2 players)
SB bets, Hero folds

VPIP/PFR/TAF/WTSD%/Hands

SB: 61/12/0.6/42/115

Ok here i basically am confused by his bet for an instance and then realise i can't call.

Is there no other way i can play against this donk lead ?

The board is pretty drawheavy and like in the other hand ( 50c/$1 FR : Donked into again ) so might do this with just a draw.
However here the board is more scary (3 overcards to your pair) and the pot is smaller as well.
If the other hand was a close call on the flop then here it's a close fold without a special read.
An other problem is that even ahead you might get outdrawn very often. Sure you can easily fold to bad cards but you never know if a K really helped him so you now fold the best hand. This makes it fold for me in a smaller pot.
