Default Re: The 99 Preflop SB Debate

[ QUOTE ]
I think you're seriously misunderstanding the postflop strength of 99, even OOP, blind versus blind.

[/ QUOTE ]

please explain, i am interested.

we have 61.5% equity when seeing a flop vs any ace, any pair, any suited con and gap con above 56s and any two cards above 9.

maybe that is enough. i think good tricky players are far more likely to try to make moves when they've called a raise rather than when they've checked in the big blind, so i think his hand becomes far easier to read when you limp pf (when he wont get fancy).

edit: [ QUOTE ]
In fact I think I've maybe open-completed in the SB about 3 times in my last 40k hands

doesnt this become very exploitable?
