I'm posting this because it's the common spot I'm not sure what to do in. Villain can have worse hands than mine, but I'm not sure if can value bet 99 in spot like that. Cbet looks more like a bluff bet, where I expect folds from JJ-TT and Kx. In reality, I don't think villain is folding those that often. In reality, some villains will float me with worse hands than 99, because it's a decent flop for bluff cbetting. In every case, except I bet and he folds, I'm having a difficult time on later streets. This hand also looks too weak to bluffcatch with. So, my questions are:
Is check/folding in this situation against an unknown standard play?
Could I 2barrel or bluffcatch the turn against floaters?
