I think I gave my opponent free check on river to complete a flush or a straigt and it's my error in this hand. Am i right?

Hi.

Preflop: This is a very standard raise here. 99 is way better than 55-22 so I'm definitely raising and hoping to isolate my opponents. 99 is crushing hands like 78s which is a good part of the limpers' ranges.

Flop: I would pot the flop (8 cents) and the reraise to 48cents is fine.

Turn: No idea why you are checking back. Just keep betting

To point out the main mistakes, you are not going for value when you should. The optimal approach in poker is to play aggressively with value hands in general, and balance your strong hands with some bluffs.
