$12.85 pot ($0.58 rake)
Final Board: 9 T 9 T 8
BB mucked A A and lost (-$6.40 net)
Hero showed Q 9 and won $12.27 ($5.87 net)

Given his stack should I have bet allin on the river instead? I bet 4 because I thought an allin would scare off overpairs.

hi

as played, you have a tough spot on deciding how much to raise :f_biggrin: it's much easier and much better to just raise big on the flop.
villain looks super fishy (stack+min3bet), and from my experience min3bets are either random air or very strong hands. if he has air there's not much value anyway, but if he has an overpair (or even random air that hit a straight draw) he is just never going to fold on the flop.

after raising flop to like $2, the pot on the turn would be about $5 and then it's easy to ship the monies by the river.

Yes, you absolutely have to raise the flop. Just calling is a pretty big mistake.

Turn minraise is also very odd. Either raise or call.. what's with the minraise? Raise to at least 2.50, probably better to go to 3.

River is ok.
