Default Re: 162 Mid pair Spot

I think call or fold are the only two options and I certainly dont mind a fold, especially since you don't have a read. The stacks are certainly deep enough to play for set/overpair/oesd value with the preflop call, and I generally don't like committing a lot of chips trying to bluff off 99-QQ with a turn bet, not even counting the times he has a king or better and is never folding, or even the times when he has QQ and check/calls you twice, etc.

The problem with raising as I see it is there aren't many hands to credibly rep. If your gonna float I almost like a turn check to rep a weak king. That way, you don't get stackadonked by a K, overs still only have 6 outs and you can fold the river if he leads as he won't ever bluff. If he checks the riv I think its a spot where you have showdown value but even more value by turning your hand into a bluff to get 99-QQ to fold.
