Is this a reckless bet on the river? He is paying me off a lot here, with any overpair, 9, of course hands that he beats me with. I c/r the flop because this is almost my default play with a draw. Plus I figured that if he has a pair, he won't reraise me, so I will put money in when being the favorite, will win a big pot if a flush comes - however, I am sure semibluff here was good. River bet is my only consideration. Villain has a little calling station tendencies against me.

I like all streets. fold to raise on river obv.

i actually just did the exact same hand that i was going to post. two pair with a flush. I play it the same way, hoping a 9 or different pocket pair calls.

It's fine. There are only two hands that can raise, 7x and 99 (a 2 almost never does but also isn't really in villain's range).

As you said you get paid off by a large number of hands.

Maybe I'm a weak player, but I really don't like betting OTR here. I'm not sure if you're really getting paid off by a big range of hands that you have beat. I think check/call is the best line here.

The problem with c/c is that it our opponent is betting almost exclusively with hands that beat us with very very few bluffs on this board. All of the hands we want villain to call us with will check behind (any 9, over pair, smaller flush, A high, pocket pair less than 9).

Nice hand so far, fold if raised unless you catch some Patrik Antonius ultra read that he is bluffing
