Sorry hand converter not working

First off theres alot of unecessary txt in your post. Would help if you trim it down some of us use phones.

Secondly 9Q off is way too loose of an open, I can get behind 9Qs but when we get called by a btn or CO and we hold 9Qo, we will often be dead on queens and lose our stack with top pair, and we cant make a flush.

Edit:misread thought the T was a J.

Pre is too lose, flop you gota fold to a raise 100% of the time there. Rule of thumb if you don’t beat his bluffs, you can never call agression.

Thanks for comments
What about turn shove?

Well we should probably never be on this spot on the turn.

I like a fold.

His check raise range on the flop should be very polarized though, if we do end up in this spot we would fold all his bluff and part of his value. Definitely not the worst part of the hand though.

Raising Q9o from the CO with antes in play is absolutely fine.

I would be check calling this flop against BTN.

Bluff seems fishy and I would likely snap call in buttons position with most of the hands he raises with.

Don't think we're deep enough to simply flat flop raise unless I'm miscalculating odds? Jam or fold otf depending on V imo

Pre is ok but depends on players behind you.

This is a tough spot. His raise is super strong, so I think you have to fold even though it sucks to fold that much equity. It's just going to be too hard to make money when you hit OOP.

Maybe I could see a flop shove to get him off T8 or AT, but I honestly wouldn't expect him to always raise those hands on the flop.

I think calling is definitely the worst option though. Either shove or fold.
