Open raiser was playing 80/60 and I had not been challenging them at all.
I'm not even certain I should have here pre-flop, however the GTO charts say 20% of the time in this case, and against such a player it seems OK

MP+1 and BTN are priced in, so can have a huge range

PokerStars, 6+ Hold'em No Limit - Button Blind $0.05 ($0.05 ante) - 6 players

UTG: $6.73 (135 bb)
UTG+1 (Hero): $5.00 (100 bb)
MP: $5.61 (112 bb)
MP+1: $3.74 (75 bb)
CO: $9.54 (191 bb)
BU: $4.01 (80 bb)

Pre-Flop: ($0.35) Hero is UTG+1 with 9♥:J♥:
1 fold, Hero calls $0.05, 1 fold, MP+1 calls $0.05, CO raises to $0.55, BTN calls $0.50, Hero calls $0.50, MP+1 calls $0.50


Flop: ($2.50) T♥:8♦:J♠: (4 players)
Hero checks, MP+1 bets $3.14 (all-in), 2 players fold, Hero ???

Open raiser and BTN have folded on this flop.
I discount premium hands because they didn't raise pre, but I included a few bluff-type hands, giving opponent this range:
QQ-JJ, 99, Q9s, Q9o, JTs, JTo-J9o, T9s-T8s, T9o-T8o, 98s-97s, 98o-97o, 87s-86s, 87o-86o
I see that it is a close call

Nice hand, they can do this also with AJ, AQ, KQ or AK.
Your money is coming from the 9T's and the 89's here. Just note what he had and adjust when necessary. If you had T9 or 89 here it's a fold.
I think this range would be played by villain [JJ-88, AQs-AJs, AQo-AJo, KQs, KQo, T9s, T9o, 98s, 98o] and aigainst this you have 55% if I ad the 2 pair type hands your equity just goes up.

Pre-flop I would fold right away, but not familiar with 6+ Hold'em and I prefer to be the aggressor in the hand.

Without knowing the hand sample size of the villain in this hand I would go for it on the flop.

I invested in some pre-flop GTO charts, and this barely qualifies as a call under normal circumstances — although I didn't know that at the time I played it.
I called mainly since the first raising opponent has been playing spewy and J9s can flop well.

Surprisingly even a gutshot has almost 25% equity vs 2 pair — and some players will happily give you the odds to call
