Hi guys! Let me know your thoughts...

Live cash $25/50 (Mexican pesos) NL - Holdem - 7 Players

HERO: 9♥:9♣: Stack 125bb ($6,500)

PREFLOP
UTG: Calls
UTG+1: Calls
HERO (Hijack): Open Raise 6bb ($300)
CO: Folds
BTN: Calls
SB: Folds
BB: Folds
UTG: Calls
UTG+1 Calls

FLOP (4 players) A♥:T♦:9♦:

UTG: Check
UTG +1: Check
Hero: Bets 30% pot
BTN: Calls
UTG: Folds
UTG+1 Calls

TURN (3 players) Q♥:
UTG+1: Check
Hero: Bets 30% pot
BTN: Raises all in (350bb // $18,000)
Hero folds

I've been playing really tight throughout the session, so the BTN knows that I only bet when I have really good hands. So to see him shoving it all in when I 2 barreled him, it seemed he had KJ or a higher set, this was my thought process. Btw he's a good player with fundamentals, not a gambler.

Did I folded correctly? Let me know your thoughts!

yeah easy fold, but you can make same move flop x/r all in. just take that money whats there and maybe he tilting and calling? youre hand dont get better and not so many player dont 3-barrel bluff when misses.

sensored strategy

I have moved your hand to our hand discussion board. There fits it better.

I would Cbet at least half pot for value and protection against multiple villians.
Read less it's tough to fold a set on the turn. Only against a better set you are in really bad shape and against KJ you have still outs to hit a full house.
Better sets would most likely play differently pre-flop and/or on the flop.
