Default A9, Blind battle, river

Villain is unknown, but typical bad small stakes player

Folded to you in SB with A9o. Villain calls.

Flop: 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

You bet, he raises, you take him to 3town, he rides shotgun and calls.

Maybe add an option for b/c, because that's what we should be doing here....

He'll call a bet with a 9 often enough. But I'm too much of a wuss and will probably C/C... I've been trying to fix that.

c/c

Many worse hands will bet when checked to here.

I am not a b/f the river fan in almost every instance.

I know, but many people wouldn't do either one - so maybe a B/C option should be added.

Bet/fold.

Tons of worse hands will call but check behind if you check.

Alot of hands are checking behind here that you get value from. Bet/fold.

C/C. Checking here looks like overplayed high cards. If you check he will bet a 9x, 7x or even 2x along with pocket pairs below 9 (if he had TT or up, I think he would have raised the turn). You beat everything but the 7x combos. You might even get him to bet Ax - I see it all the time from seemingly rational players.

Given the number of hands that he will bet that you beat versus those hands he will fold or raise if you bet first I think inducing a river bet is the way to go here.
