Default Re: Stars 55 regular - BB special

what are we scared a winning, solid player is limping TT-AA utg+1 at a 6-handed table with blinds at 75/150?

This used to be the best way to play those hands. It might still be but I'm not real sure.

As for the hand I dunno check/fold or check/raise AI. Betting seems dumb.

e: Betting might not be bad but betting b/c you have a pair of 9's is.

totally. the only way to represent a 4 is the crai. he will probably/hopefully fire out a small bet here to try to take it down.

Bet t250 because we have the best hand and don't want to see anymore cards. Check-raise all in is my second choice if I think he'll bet at it.

It also serves the purpose of folding out AQ type hands before the turn.

As the original limper, I check behind here alot (perhaps too much) with premium overs. The bet out from the blind gives premium overs a difficult time and hence has some value.

How is it 100% bluff? If I CRAI its hoping he's committed some chips so he'll call when I'm a nice favorite or fold some hands that might outdraw me after getting some of his chips. I expect to have the best hand here 85% of the time.

CRAI is not a bluff. Guys are will call with 55-88 and FD's.
Plus by the time you CRAI you will be adding so much to your stack that even if it a bluff it isn't a terrible one.
You can't fold this flop here ever unless villian flips up a worse hand. Sometime I will CRAI here sometimes I will bet call here, I will almost never fold here.
