Board is indeed scary. I'd prefer a check OTT actually. We can call 1 bet of villain - under pot bet, that is. Reason is, you have outs vs a straight and are ahead of a possible FD.

Board is a little scary, but I would still probably call here. You have top 2 pair and straight draw. Even if he has AJ, J9, or a set you have outs. I think he's probably got a pair(something like AK, AQ, A10) and a draw.

AJ and J9 are possible but villain has many pair+draw kind of hands too. You can fold but I don't think it is bad to call with top 2 pair.

You have top 2 pair and straight draw.

Where is our straight draw?

I would bet bigger on flop.
On turn you can go either way.

Turn bet is good. He can have KQ/QT and a hand like QJ for pair+SD is never folding to one bet.

According to both the theorems of Nash (GTO) and Baluga (call top 2) you need a read to fold. You have a read. Acceptable fold.
