Default Re: Set of 9\'s against draws

I'm glad that I could contribute to your floor-rolling, but I'm not so sure it's that easy. We win money by enticing opponents to make bad decisions. I believe his flop call was a bad decision. It's only a good decision on his part if I'm offering implied odds by paying off when he hits.

If he gets to fold when he's still behind on the turn or river, but gets paid off when he's ahead, he's making a good call on the flop here.

I know that results don't matter, but, as both of you have suggested, I called and paid him off. I've wondered about the wisdom of this all day long. I suppose that I do beat enough A, J, and T hands that the call was correct, but I'm not entirely sure.
