I would raise a little more preflop; they're going to call you down a lot, so I'd raise just enough to give them bad set-mining odds HU. If both come along, you have a huge pot where you're really far ahead.

Not sure how you were "too tricky" ... looks standard to me

[ssnyc]

thanks all...I liked my line and it worked for one card...the button had 99 and turned a 9 so MHING but no regrets...got the money in goooot as usual...

Exactly what MJBuddy said. Need to re-raise more pre-flop, 99 has massive value to hit a set and bust you.

yes and no

More preflop, sure ... but this guy is never getting away from his 99 in a $4.40 ...

So from a play perspective ... yes. wouldn't have changed the results here though.. Separate issues
