I'd shove everytime your hand is pretty big. I don't see villain leading pot with a huge hand, though maybe that's what people do nowadays.

Yeah, this is the kind of flop that you're looking for with 99; plus, he has already put a good amount in the pot for you. If he has a set, you have outs to your straight, but odds are you're ahead here and he has like AK or something like that.

Mm on a rainbow board I wouldnt even think about not shuving this but with 2 spades on the board it lowers our possible outs a fair bit hence me posting, also ofc there are 3 people in the hand not 2.

Note : raising only 150 pre keep the pot smaller and make your decision easier.
This is small stack poker, raising 4xBB or more is rarely good except except in the very very early levels.

If he's got a flush draw you're always ahead of it...

Why make crap posts like this? It's so obvious everyone on 2+2 knows this, read the hand and the thread correctly before making a lame troll post. Thanks for bet sizing advice tho I fully agree just multi tabling can cause you to make a few mistakes [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
Looking back at the hand this is a clear fold, we really arnt ahead of much.

If he has 2 spade overcards its a flip
Set 2-1 dog
Overpair higher than ours 2-1 dog

And our pot odds dont warrant calling at all. Case closed! Results were that Villan1 had 10-9 for a flopped straight and his hand held up.

OP,

Note that it would be much easier if you had taken 10 seconds of your time to convert the hand and make it EZ to read.
See FAQ.

The converter was being really funny with my poker office HH (anyone know one that works with FTP poker office HH?) fyi and I had to edit it manually.

pf I make it 150 for the reasons other posters said. My default play is to actually limp with 99 in this spot. As played you built a big pot and got about the best flop you could hope for. I'd shove over the flop bet vs an unknown. This is a draw that wants to bet you off of two big cards enough that I would be willing to ship it in.
