Default Re: A discussion with Corsakh - 3betting pairs from the blinds

I probably c-bet that flop with 99, but I make it like 7. The difference may not seem that big but now we knocked down our investment to 13 which is only 1 buck more than we would have following the other scenario. I think the extra dollar is more than made up for by initiative as well as the times villain folds pf. You can argue that we got to the turn though for cheaper but if we play the hand by 3 betting, we arent getting the turn too often anyway. Assuming we do, our hand is over and we have the same info for a buck more. However, we increased our chances of taking the hand down overall pf and on the flop by being aggressive. If we just c/c we are letting him draw to outs and we really dont know where we are. It might be me but I am nowhere close to comfortable calling two bets with 99 on a KTx flop. Just my 2 cents.
