Was that the right call or should have I knew that he had the straight ?

BTN: 97.5 BB
SB: 120.5 BB
BB: 149 BB
UTG: 100 BB
Hero (MP): 139 BB
CO: 58 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has 9h 9d
UTG raises to 2.5 BB, Hero calls 2.5 BB, CO calls 2.5 BB, fold, SB calls 2 BB, fold

Flop : (11 BB, 4 players) 5h 6c 9s
SB checks, UTG checks, Hero checks, CO bets 3 BB, fold, fold, Hero calls 3 BB

Turn : (17 BB, 2 players) 3d
Hero checks, CO bets 8.5 BB, Hero calls 8.5 BB

River : (34 BB, 2 players) 7h
Hero checks, CO bets 33 BB, Hero calls 33 BB

CO shows Kd 8d (Straight, Nine High)
(Pre 31%, Flop 13%, Turn 9%)

Hero mucks 9h 9d (Three of a Kind, Nines)
(Pre 69%, Flop 87%, Turn 91%)

CO wins 96.5 BB

Well preflop flat is ok though would not mind 3bet either. On flop you should either lead or x-r imo. Well leading sort of suck as you block top pair so much but people are not usually that eager to bet in such 4way flop. When bet does come I would just raise and try to build pot. CO is also short stack so we are more than happy to stack off flop.

As played on turn go for x-r again. Now there is also few more rivers we dont want to see like 4.

On the river it gets daisy. With pot bet villain is saying he has straight and on this board run out that is likely pretty high possibility. Its rainbow after all on flop and turn so finding bluffs is tough. So in river I prefer fold as played but biggest point is we should have played both flop and turn with more aggression...
