Default How to play my 99...

No reads on villains

Everest Poker $1/$2 Hold'em (6 handed)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
Hero calls, 1 fold, CO calls, Dealer calls, SB raises, BB folds, Hero calls, CO calls, Dealer calls.

Flop: (8 SB) 10[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 10[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (4 players)
SB checks, Hero checks, CO checks, Dealer bets, SB calls, Hero ?

I think it's fold, but my friend thinks it is stupid to fold [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

I bet this flop.

I don't see why you are folding this...

raise preflop.

with sb raising, then checking I bet this flop.

you need a read to make your next play. is "Dealer" aggressive? loose? tight? good? bad? if you think he is trying to pick it up with a flush draw, which could be very likely, I raise. If he is a solid player who only bets with the nuts it's an easy fold.

as played call because your hand is vulnurable and bet if no OC or spade hits on turn

but you should really bet after SB has checked, pot is pretty big and you don't want to give free cards because you're likely ahead

Code, please tell us why you didnt bet the flop? seriously, you NEED to tell us your thought process on this hand if you want to get better at poker.

FWIW, I raise 99+ UTG preflop.
