This week was again a rollercoaster of swings. Check this graph out.
I have already indicated that I might have a mental issue and cannot always control some situations. When I really lose control, I apparently do not think straight and hands like this happen:

I am almost finished with the book 'Easy Game: Making sense of no limit hold 'em' by Andrew Seidman. After that, I will definitely order the book 'The Mental Game of Poker'. I also noticed during my advice giving to Nicky Cakes last week that I prefer books that are more 'example-driven'. That is, plain theory does not encourage me enough to take action at the tables. However, by reading/seeing different ways of playing styles, I do see myself improving.

Questions
1) Should I have raised more OTT?
2) Was it a check OTR?

Question
1) Was this a good fold? I used equilab and based on his range I didn't think I had enough equity against him (18.39%). See graph below (in spoiler) how I perceived him.
Equilab results Hand 2
Spoiler
Preflop Range
I just put 26% and gave him a few more suited connectors.
Postflop Range
I didn't give him more hands in his range than before (e.g. suddenly J-8S or something).
Equity
Board: 9:heart:Q:spade:T:club:
Equity Win Tie
MP2 22.75% 18.39% 4.36% { KdQc }
BB 77.25% 72.89% 4.36% { QQ, TT-99, KJs+, QTs-Q9s, J9s, T9s, KJo, QTo }
Do you think I did it right?
BTW, I am working on the Equilab article to get more comfortable with equity calculations. Hope I will get the hang of it by the end of this week!
Coaching
Even though I can talk for a long time about my flaws in poker and can order books like anything. In the end, I want process. The PokerStrategy forum is nice and I get some nice insights in hands and ways of playing it. However, I think when I want to improve, I would need to bulk up the amount of comments and get more constructive feedback and a more serious look on what I really want from the game. So I will make it happen and decided to take coaching classes with Vonki (Thank you so much for the great initiative you took and help players like me develop beyond the micros!:f_thumbsup:). I really look forward to the coaching classes and will dedicate my time seriously towards this process.
If anyone has any questions or comments, please feel free to leave them behind!
Cheers,
Hesticus
Vonki advised me to take notes after when having the video so we don't lose time. 
You can see some falls in it but luckily not too much out of this small sample of 1,100 hands. I am quite pleased with it, although it can be better. That's why I have these coaching sessions and till know after 1 session it helps a lot!
Just that I started the book 'The Mental Game of Poker'. So far I haven't had the chance to read beyond the introductory section. However, this book will be right up my alley. Check these points that the book gives as an example many fish think and see whether it applies to you as well
