Villain has been somewhat nitty (14/10). Before you tell me to fold pre, the players behind me are either nitty or very fishy which is why i played the pot, and A9s can flop big vs someone (such as villain) who is deeper than 100bb. This was back when i first was getting into 10NL FR (from 25NL 6max, lost some buyins so was looking to decrease variance/build BR) so my range was wider than it should have been due to the adjustment.

A and Q here makes it a nice flop for a c-bet, so i throw one out there expecting a fold. The call behind on flop and the call here made me thinking he had some spades, a Q, or maybe a similar ace. Of course 22 is in his range as well but considering the range i feel i am ahead as well as having the initiative makes it likely i can take the pot there.

MP1 raises to $3, Hero calls $1.90
Nice card for me here, gives me a nut flush draw with a pair so i have some good equity. I could have checked here and hope he would check behind, but if he is chasing spades i would rather him out of the pot here. The c/r kind of annoyed me but 1.90 for ~6 is good enough for a call (considering implied odds). Considering the stats on the villain this check raise is probably for some sort of value and not a semi-bluff so i don't think the naked ace will be good here, but if i hit my hand i can definitely stack him on the river.
