Default Re: Gross spots with 99

Playing 88-JJ correct are very hard. There are many options available. Very early in the tournament I mostly use them to steal blinds or play them for set value. Dont want to build a big pot with hard to play hands.

Later on when I have reads on my opponents I can play them much more aggressivly.

Hand 1 is ok. Hand 2 I would call preflop and check-call on the flop and check-fold the turn if button fires a second barrel and I've missed my set.
