Its not often a hand gets to me, but I went to bed last night my mind going 6 to the dozen as to whether I should have played this hand any differently?
It is early on in an MTT, blinds are at 15, 30. I have around 2300 in chips. The action is all folded round to the button who raises it to 90
I am the SB and have ah :as: I re raise to 240, the BB folds and the button calls.
The flop then comes jc 9c 9d
I fire out a 1/2 pot bet (250) to find out where I am, the button flat calls. I am now thinking that the button either has one of the other nines, 10 q or a flush draw.
The turn comes 9s .
I check and so does the button. I now think that button is definitely on a draw and disregard the fact that they may have the last 9 in the deck.
River comes ac .
I am now hoping that the button has hit is flush. I bet 500 and the button goes all in , I call and they show 9h js.
Having re-run the hand through my head I dont see how I could get away from it, they only thing I think I should have done is raised a little more pre flop.
Any opinions would be appreciated.

I raise bigger pre with my entire range when oop.
I bet turn for value.
Im happy getting it in on river.

My chips are in a second after his at the end, though I think he is more likely to have a J than a flush. Who is not going to be happy to get them in here, as I think you must know?
One thing I don"t like is:

I hear this kind of thing all the time, but I don"t get it. I can"t see the benefit. I always bet for a reason, but that reason is never for information.
