On the flop...RAISE, RAISE, RAISE. You're going to have to be willing to gamble with that flop at this level. It's an excellent flop, and you're almost guaranteed at least 1 player to overbet on this, even with a crappy draw.

I'm confused...
Turn: 2
River: 2
and then the showdown
Dealer: HiroReborn has a pair of Sixes
Dealer: littlespidey has two pair, Nines and Sixes

And littlespidey folded the flop...
What about the player that had K5?
How are either of these hands possible on a K9822 board?

Are you saying he pushed in with an underpair? Again, why is he calling you a donk if he pushes a family pot with an underpair?

If you're not willing to go broke with a SF draw, then why are you limping in with JTs and then calling a raise with it? Your play was fine for the rest of the hand. I may raise the 300 flop bet, but a call was fine as it made another player behind you push.

The only way to misplay this hand on all streets is to fold. With your hand you have a virtual smorgasboard of choices available to you.

I would advise that you don't teach the donkeys at the table by explaining your moves to them. Let them keep thinking you made a bad play while you laugh all the way to the bank with their money. Clueing them in that there's a 'smarter' way to play the game is -EV for skilled players.

Lol. According to PStove:

Board: 8h 9h Kc
Dead:

equity (%) win (%) tie (%)
Hand 1: 52.0202 % 52.02% 00.00% { JhTh }
Hand 2: 47.9798 % 47.98% 00.00% { AhKs }

You're a favorite against almost any hand on that flop except a set (against which you're still better than a 3:2 dog). I push over the flop bet.
