I think in retrospect I was ahead here. A set isn't checkraising that flop...what, a better 2-pair?

Anyway, just looking for some insight.

check/raising that flop seems like J9 here, but I have a feeling you're ahead because many players at this level always slowplay to the river.

edit: realized "behind" does not mean "ahead"

he has jacks and doesn't believe either of you. and by jacks, I mean a lone pair of jacks. JT or something.

I'd flat call if I think I'm ahead, which I think you are. Otherwise, you could reraise for information, but in all honesty, only hands that beat you call you in that situation.

I like my hand here, you're the BB you are the one who could have two random ass cards catch two pair on a raggy board. I think a set or top two would just smooth call and continue to extract more on the turn/river since the board is relatively drawless (you probably aren't bettign 1.50 OOP on the strait draw). Looks like a weak J (QJ, KJ) or a bluff.

You are ahead on the flop here. Push your chips in the middle.
It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.
