€0.02 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 5 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

CO: 45.5 BB
BTN: 118 BB (VPIP: 36.36, PFR: 18.18, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 22)
SB: 104 BB
Hero (BB): 100 BB
UTG: 107 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, Hero posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has 9♠ Q♦

UTG raises to 2.5 BB, fold, fold, SB calls 2 BB, Hero calls 1.5 BB

Flop: (7.5 BB, 3 players) 4♥ 8♠ J♦
SB checks, Hero checks, UTG bets 2.5 BB, fold, Hero raises to 12 BB, UTG calls 9.5 BB

Turn: (31.5 BB, 2 players) 5♦
Hero bets 22 BB

I start to call the flop, but then I think, my first hand of the session, probably weakish reg bets really small 3way on Jxx, he would probably size up with overpair/AJ; so instead of calling the flop I go for a checkraise, repping 88, 44. He calls though suspecting that I have T9 I believe, so I bet turn to still get him off that weak pair or overcards. What do you think?

It's NL2 and than it's harder to represent something, because most villains aren't really thinking what you could play like this.
The only way to win after the check raise is to go for a bluff on turn and if villain called on river as well.
Change you hit a straight isn't likely with 3 clean outs.

In general I would even consider folding pre-flop with a Q9o that hasn't much playabillity post-flop. Especially out of position it's hard to play back in a multi way pot if you miss like now. Trying to out play without position is really tough without any info that it could work enough to make it a +ev move on long run.

Yeah folding definitely is nice and beautiful option, thanks! Too much listening to Mr. Crawford lately maybe... but loved it.

It could look weak, but it's hard to predict why villain makes that 1/3 Cbet sizing. Maybe it's standard sizing of him/her or just clicking buttons.
