BTN: $9.45 (189 bb)
SB: $6.71 (134.2 bb)
Hero (BB): $8.72 (174.4 bb)
UTG: $3.42 (68.4 bb)
MP: $2.50 (50 bb)
CO: $6.06 (121.2 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BB with J Q
4 folds, SB raises to $0.12, Hero raises to $0.36, SB raises to $0.85, Hero calls $0.49

Flop: ($1.70) 9 9 T (2 players)
SB bets $0.85, Hero calls $0.85

Turn: ($3.40) 8 (2 players)
SB bets $1.80, Hero raises to $4.05, SB raises to $5.01 and is all-in, Hero calls $0.96

River: ($13.42) 9 (2 players, 1 is all-in)

Villain is a 27/26 (vpip/pfr).His steal from SB is 94%(on 16 hands) and fights a lot for his blinds.How is my sizing on the turn ??How do you view my play on this hand as a whole ?

Hi helliaspapas

Preflop: Unless you are 3-betting for value here I would just call this preflop. And once you get 4-bet why do you defend here? You are easily dominated and have limited info to play with.

Postflop: Given the money left behind you can just shove the turn.
