Raising is horrendous because you lose the vast majority of the hands that you're beating and get called by the vast majority of the hands that have you whamboozled

what vast majority of hands is this that is putting anymore money in the pot? If u wanna take this line to snap off a bluff - sure - i just dont like playing the guessing game here and rather put in a raise here that gets called by all his draws, folds out some better nines and gets a cheap showdown against a king. If he 3bets im done.

Why do you think a draw is calling? Unless you price him in?

Meanwhile, poker is a game of imperfect information, if you don't like intelligent "guessing" you may want to find another way to spend your time. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
