I'm trying to play more hands, but keep finding myself in awkward spots like this, best to go back to folding pre?
OTF - bet seems OK.
OTT bet/fold, c/c or c/f?
I knew I shouldnt call the raise

Seat 9: Player9 ( 1090 ) - VPIP: 75, PFR: 0, 3B: 0, AF: 0.5, Hands: 20

On the flop I would bet more against 2 players on a wet board like this. I would bet 2/3 pot or so.
On the turn I would bet/fold, because I don’t think a passive player would raise with worse. Especially when he’s min raising.

Cheers,

IMHO nothing wrong with opening such hands from later positions. I used to play really tight, now I try to open more from CO, BTN and SB. Even stuff like J9s, especially against nits.

We are completing in the SB here with 1 limper on the CO.
