Played it fine, dont look back, dont think quads, just keep raising.

Remember there are 3 times as many 88s as 99s out there.

But does a 14.9/7.7/1.33 player play 88 and 99 the same in this position?

With his willingness to go to the felt and with every raise that he keeps throwing in, 99 must be weighted higher than 88. So it's not a sttictly 3-1 card combination ratio, and I still think it gets closer to 1-1 than most people think.

It still isn't 1-1, so cap it. Lets face it, when you have the second nuts and run up against the nuts, you're gonna (and you should) lose some bets.
