I would raise here to see if he has a 9.......and because I'm betting out on the river....maybe to $24.......don't want river to pair board or 9 or 4, so I think you have to raise for value....at least 4 times the bet to keep him from calling with proper odds.
call/call the river. i'm not interested in putting much money in with the low end, but i think its good. he most likely has A8/2 pr (and put out a feeler bet) so you can still lose to a 9 on the river. but 99 or 89 are possible too.
My thinking was that I have a hand with good showdown value, but I'm not sure I want to play a big pot. If the river blanks out, then I plan on value betting, thinking I could possibly get a call from a set or overpair. If the board pairs, I'm more likely to check-call.
As for the raise idea, it seems like only losing hands are going to fold... but, if we do get a call, then I guess we can more confidently deduce that our villain either has a 9 or a set. So we could get away easily (i.e., check-fold) in this case if the river pairs the board. But if it doesn't, are we firing out on the river after betting the turn?
