hi,guys,i am not sure how to play this hand,i know it depend on the player,but i want to know mostly what is the best line this hand,just put the villion as a normal player.
i mainly have two questions:

1.flop,should i check or cbet? i check here ,because i have good pair and gut shot,it is a very coordinate board,i want to control the pot small,if villian bet,i call,see turn,which is better,check or bet?

2.river,should i bet or check/fold?i have no flush,what is possibilty villian have flush?50%? maybe more?i bet,if he call,i lost,i check,maybe he bluff me,so what is the best play on river?
thanks!!!

I'd expect anything that villain bets on the flop that isn't air to also barrel the turn. Villain might also barrel with air if he realizes that you never c/c that flop with a strong hand. For this reason I don't like c/c.

I'd just go ahead and bet it. If villain is a fish, he'll likely just call if he has a draw, and he'll certainly call with 9x, so there is some value in it. Mainly though I bet because it's better than c/c or c/f. Then I'd c/f the turn (bet again against bad players if the turn is a blank for value) and the river.

As played I c/f the river. If villain has Jx or 9x with no club he'll probably check back. The other likely hand that would've called the turn (a hand containing a high club) now beats you.

I think your line is OK sometimes, but I think you should bet the flop more times than not. The reason I bet the flop is to get value from flush draws and hands that have middle or bottom pair and a straight draw. There aren't a ton of turn cards that you'll love in this spot, so I think betting the flop is best, then re-evaluate on the turn.

As played I'd just c/f the river

pretty easy c/f river, after he check behind j97 and calls when a 3rd club hits its definitely skews his range towards a hand with a club in it.

b/f flop, if u're raised ur equity sucks, b/f turn as u can rep a flush and he can fold a J, and obvious c/f R.

I hate betting flop OOP but on this board, it's your best option. c/f river as played.

b/f-ing the flop is fine as is c/c-ing. Bet more on the turn and fold if he raises. c/f the river now.

Bet fold flop then bet fold turn then check fold river bet like 2/3 each time
