mong, i'm pretty sure 99 has a decent edge against 3 other players...?

It probably does. What I am wondering though is do we always exploit preflop edges no matter how small and no matter what position we are in? It seems that there would be occassions where it might be better to forego that edge in order to more easily play the hand postflop. Also, when considering our edge do we put any thought into how raising or reraising might create reverse implied odds post flop. It seems that 99 is just good enough to keep us in the hand until the river in certain situations where we may have just folded earlier had the pot not been so big.

Maybe this is a situation where we can mix it up and sometimes reraise and sometimes just call.
