Did I play this way too tight?

Question

1/3 NL I have about $600 in front of me, I had doubled my buy in and was waiting for my g/f to get to the casino so we eat dinner so I wasn't getting in the middle of that many pots.

I have 6d, 8d in the BB. Action folds around and there are 2 callers. Flop comes 5s, 7s, 9s. I make it $15, there is one caller. Turn comes Qh. I make it $25, he calls. River comes Ks. I check, he bets $55 and I fold. He then shows me a 9c.

I know that I should have bet the river, but if he had a spade I'm out more money than just folding to his bluff.

I would have called -  You are laying $55 to win $75 &#x2B;.  Only way I fold is if you put him on the flush....Which you did.

he showed you the 9c, but his other card was likely a big spade, don&#x27;t let assholes like this get into your head

Depends on the player.
