This spot came up in my session this morning against a typical 14/6 nit. I made it 8x when 3BB +1limper would have been 6x. Not sure it made that much of a difference, but as soon as he flatted PF, I pegged him on set-mining.

BB raises $1.90 to $3.40
This is almost a min-raise. The only POSSIBLE hand that I beat here is maybe a 1010/JJ. It just seems like this is the textbook scenario of someone showing strength, most likely AA, KK, QQ..and getting the proper odds, getting in there to set-mine. So, what's the best line here? There's also a FD, but I don't see this type of player drawing with this line. Is this 95% of the time 99, 77, 22? Do we just flat and try to get to SD? Shove and pray for 1010, JJ?
