Hero (SB): 115.2 BB

Hero posts SB 0.4 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.4 BB) Hero has 9♥ Q♣

fold, fold, fold, Hero raises to 3 BB, BB calls 2 BB

Flop: (6 BB, 2 players) 4♠ 8♦ K♠
Hero checks, BB checks

Turn: (6 BB, 2 players) 9♦
Hero bets 3 BB, BB calls 3 BB

River: (12 BB, 2 players) Q♥
Hero bets 8 BB, BB raises to 36 BB, Hero calls 28 BB

First of all, a guy in my study group advocates opening from SB with 2.5BB rather than 3BB. I don't think thats relevant to this post but wanted to get your guys' views.

I think the play here is pretty standard. I could have bet the flop. Not sure why I didn't.. maybe because of the FD.

OTR I make two pair and I am wondering if betting here is okay. I'm thinking that I will get called quite wide, as there are two broken FD's and not a lot else going on. When he reraises OTR I feel that the only logical hand he can be doing this with is JT or some sort of weak Qx hand. But I block one Q. Any stronger two pair would have meant he needed a K which I think he would of bet OTF. He could have 99 I suppose but think he would have raised this OTT with the two FD's possible.

I think against NIT you can cbet flop with air they are overfolding to cbets and you arre IP.
Turn you want bet for protection its ok.
River you have 33,33% POT odds
Our oponent is nit and i dont think he will have many bluffs here. Best will be fold OTR.

Definitely cbet OTF. As played u can bet a bit bigger for protection against many draws. Those hands that are beating u OTR should be raised preflop (KQ, JT) in SBvsBB battles.

For me a call.
