Re: 9Ts vs LAG
If he's a maniac, I'm gonna check raise 90% of the time here. The amount depends on the action in front of me.

BB checked to me, I led out $50, with the intent to call if UTG+1 pushes.
My thinking was that I'd get UTG+1 to muck and probably get one of the others to call.

i guess you know the table, but people call raises with a lot more hands that flop flushes here than AKs.
This must be a capped buyin game given the stack sizes.

Re: 87s
