    Default 99 with 1 over, dry board, 5NL, any value in double barrel?

    Just started playing micros cash and have run into this kind of spot a couple of times. The flop bet seemed good since I expected to be called by worse and fold out overs, but after getting called I didn't really like any of my options. c/f seems too weak, c/c seems kind of meh and I didn't really see many worse hands calling a lead. If I'd had more of a read on the player it could have been easier but he'd only just sat down.

    Do you think leading flop into two players is good here and if so what's your turn play?

    Preflop: Hero is UTG with 9, 9
    Hero bets $0.25, MP calls $0.25, CO calls $0.25, 3 folds

    You can always check the flop for pot control.

    Im opedipus bitch, the original balla.
    check/evaluate flop. With two villains you aren't getting called by worse all that often. 8x could very reasonably fold here in a 3way pot, and I highly doubt they called 77-. Also the amount of floats they do would likely be reduced. As played, c/f turn.
