Villain is 25/20 over couple hundred hands. No specific notes on post flop…everything seems pretty solid on his end.

the only worse value hands I beat on the flop that raise me are QT, T9, and T8--and I'm not sure how often all of those get raised on the flop. The semibluff draws that may raise the flop just got there: 's, KQ--though 98 didn't. Calling getting 5-1 didn't seem like the right price given RIO if a 4th hits, or I improve and am already behind.

i think it's a fine spot to fold.

I don't think we can fold the turn (if that was your question.) River seems like an ok fold if villain is straight forward.

I think it ia a pretty clear fold on that turn if we assume that villains range is MP+ hands and all OESD:s and Fdraws when he raises flop. I think it is closer if he raises all gsdraws but even then I think it is a fold.

EDIT: After changing some numbers in Cardrunners I actually want to calldown on a non-diamond river.

The turn looks really bad but as long as he's C/R most of his OESDs I'm pretty sure you have to call again. I'd need to bust out combonator here to be certain, but I think calling down on non diamonds/non 8-9s is probably better than folding. You can even get value from some of those hands which will c/r, barrel, then check to induce on the river.
