    good fold. You have no flush draw, a backdoor straight draw and your 9 is most likely not a clean out.
    Poker is easy, it's winning at poker that's hard.

    Personally I wouldn't even bother with this hand from MP2. Just fold it and move on. I'd need AJ+ or 99+ to raise in this spot.

    BTW, try to move up out of the $1.25 tourneys as soon as you can. 25% rake is MURDER.
