River: (189.28 BB, 2 players) 8:club:

Just play 13 hands with this player.

Preflop: A9s standard calling range.
Flop: rainbow flop check call the BTN cbet.
Turn: We make two pair. here we lost to all the sets (AA, TT, JJ, 99), straight KQ, 78, and higher two pair like AJ, AT which may not be too possible since I have an A blocker. We beat worse two pair such as TJ, T9, J9, all the one pair draw such as AQ, AK, KJ, QJ, QT, 88, and AX with low kicker. Thinking that I am out of position, and I still beat so many hands I raise to charge the drawing and lower two pair one pair. Then he jam I call.

Do you think I play this hand correct? Should I just check call the turn?

I will let you know the results of this hand after discussion~

On the turn you improve to two pair but on this board that hits the ranges very well I consider this a two street value hand would just call on the turn as your aim should be to get to a cheap showdown and let him bluff of worse hands then yours. With check raising you only should get be looked up by better hands and most worse hands should fold.

You raise and he now goes all-in for an extra 43 BB which gives you very good odds. Would say that you are beat as there aren't any good draws on this board, but would call and make a note on what the villain had and how he played the hand.
