oh crap
8 handed game where I open A9o in the CO
Button 3 bets. Both blinds call. I have never seen the button get out of line, but he knows I am opening in the CO so he can be raising light here. Blinds are awful awful awful awful. Flop comes 8JQ, checks to the button who checks. Turn is a T. SB leads, BB calls, I raise, Button 3 towns, SB calls, BB calls... I fold. ---- Anyone play this different? Anyone try to show this down, anyone not raise the turn? I am not even sure if this hand is post worthy.... but have heard mixed reviews from different 2+2ers

Re: oh crap
It sure does look like AK. Yeah I think you're chopping at best, possibly drawing dead, plus you have to dodge several cards on the river. Not a bad fold.

Re: oh crap
What the hell is he 3 towning other than AK if the guy is anything but decent? Unless he has A9 as well?
I like the raise with two guys already committed, especially with your reads, as these guys will call with a lot of crap that does not involve a 9.

This is not a laydown you should be making for one bet in a huge pot like this. Just out of the chance he is playing a set without thinking anyone has a straight. [/ QUOTE ] I wouldn't really argue he's laying it down for 1 bet, because he has little chance to improve vs the likely hands that are beating him, so we're paying 2 BBs to get to showdown.

Re: oh crap
I just returned to live, full ring mid-limit holdem these last two months, so forgive me if I'm a bit rusty.
I think this is a very easy call. There are already 19 BBs in this pot and there is a decent chance you have a 2way chop with the button's 99. Even if the button has AK, we have 3 outs to a chop. There's also always the small chance that button is pushing a big draw (2pair + FD or OESD + FD for instance). And don't forget that people sometimes get out of line PF with T9s or whatever. I can't see letting one extra SB put in PF force us into such a rigid read that we give up on this enormous pot.
