Two overs w/ a flush draw is a likely hand for opponent. Two bare overs don't justify the turn call. I'm checking the river here and frequently calling a river bet.

Reads would be pretty huge here. Is this guy a nit with 99 or a calling station with a draw? WTF is the point of the river bet? You think he's folding an 8 or calling you down with AQss?

Well he ended up having ATo which was even slighlty weaker than I had anticipated.

After thinking about it a little more though I can see plays that would involve flat calling w PP if I knew the player was aggressive enough but still dont think I like it. Obviously that doesnt matter though. The reason I posted this was that I knew it was a strange line that I took but to me it still made since so I threw it out there to see if others could point out what I might have been failing to think about.

yup, and for the record small bets on the river loved to get called. I dont know why, but I swear I get 80% river calls regardless of hand values if the bet is less than half the pot.

Your read was right, but I am not sure that I could have eliminated 77-99 here and I would have probably checked the river at least, but you were there man...sometimes we just know (or strongly suspect) like you did here.

Limp preflop.
Check turn
Check river.

Just because raising his been profitable for you doesn't mean limping isn't more profitable.

I agree with what Pudge says.

Nice result anyway.
