SB and BB both call.
Flop is 9d9sTc. SB and BB check. Are we c-betting here? If yes, are you still c-betting with no diamonds on the board?
This is a rather wet board, and the pot is multiway, so this is not a good spot for a c-bet in general.
.
Pairs that block straight draws, like JJ, QQ, or JT and QT will be better value bets than hands like AA, because holding them villains are less likely to have straight draws. We want to bluff-catch with hands that
don't block straight draws, like A9, AA, KK, or AT. We don't want to bet 99, TT, or T9 because they have the deck crippled and we want villains to catch up so we can stack them.
Our value range, then, is going to be small, and this is a multiway pot, so our bluffing range should be even smaller. I would say just suited QJ.
So, no, do not c-bet KdJd here. Check back and hope to spike a Q on the turn.
