villain just sat down this was his 1st or 2nd hand. On the flop I bet half pot, maybe I should have gone 2/3pot.. I am looking to get value from any spade draw, any two-pair, any K or Q.

On the turn I bet again because I think even though he can have flushes I think he can also have a bunch of two pairs, AT, etc.. if he is a fishy player he can be playing a bunch of off-suited combos. When villain raises me I'm not happy but I don't think I can fold yet especially given his small raise sizing. The river doesn't change much and he bets again.. I am putting him on a fairly wide range still because he's 2nl player in this spot and think he can still have a variety of two-pairs, and I think he could be playing this way with a Tx aswell. what do you think?

Pretty sure it was the first hand of villain at this table. Villain was posting the BB at MP position. Even with this in mind it's tough to raise pre-flop with T9s against a weak range. You don't want to play a big pot out of position and T9s played well post-flop.

River is a tricky spot with the 3 card flush on this board, but against most likely a fish it's tough to fold broadway.
