Default Re: Playing OOP w/ 99

[ QUOTE ]

As I stated in my original post and reiterated, against these opponents I would probably reraise preflop and bet this flop and shut down if called. Why? Because my hand most likely rates to be the best preflop. On the flop my hand may still be best but is now extremely vulnerable. If one of my opponents goes past this flop, he most likely has a J or better. So I will shut down. I don't feel like being sandwiched postflop and playing a guessing game when my PP is essentially 2nd pair. If the PF coldcaller was a big fish, I probably just call and play some poker. Many reasons for that which need not going into to to derail this thread.

nice post.
Question: does this apply IP as well? MP raises, CO calls and we are OTB with either 66 or 99, are we more inclined to 3bet with 99 than we are with 66?
