Playing OOP w/ 99
 

MP is kind of a standard 21/16 TAG. CO is a 15/11/2 nit. How often do people lead here in this spot? What do we do on turn when CO calls? I'm never sure how to play this hand in this spot. When CO call flop I figure there's good chance he has a J, but could also have smaller pr/flush draw.

bet/fold like $45-$50. if he calls c/f river is probably best

Re: Playing OOP w/ 99
 

c/f. not a huge fan of flop either

Re: Playing OOP w/ 99
 

Versus these opponents I squeeze PF and follow through with a sizeable flop bet and shut down if called.

Re: Playing OOP w/ 99
 

I think I'd just c/f the flop.

edit, and 3bet pf ftw

Re: Playing OOP w/ 99
 

I would slow down now.

His hand looks like AJ/KJ, i don't think he has a heart draw because he would probably raise the flop.

I don't like betting because if he raises you have to fold and if he flat calls your in a nasty spot on the river.

Standard line here..

Re: Playing OOP w/ 99
 

So, it's standard for you guys to squeeze an MP raiser w/ mid pairs??? This seems contradictory to what a lot of good players advise. Most good players don't like 3betting OOP w/ mid pairs, so why is squeezing so good?

And what is so terrible about donking this particular flop?
