[flatbroke]

why are you thinking on the river?

[peatr999]

is this an autopush? i am very new to NL i am a limit convert

Without a read on villain what could he have that beats you? 99? T9 (don't think he'd play it like this...), TT (probably the hand I'd fear the most). I'm also not a fan of checking a flopped set against an unknown. Looks to me that you could have gotten more money here

Edit: against an unknown I'm getting my stack in there everytime

[peatr999]

so whats a better line? i am learning here!

does anyone care about results here?

Against an unknown? Bet flop, bet turn, b3b ai river.

i don't mind the flop check, this flop likely hit noone and you're not too worried about giving a free card... might as well try to get a continuation bet from villain.

he's obviously strong with that river raise, although i'm having a hard time putting him on a hand. AA/KK are very possible. I probably make it $40 here... overpairs may call, naked 9s always call, and you'd be suprised how many boats will call instead of raise.

Results oriented thinking...he probably had T9...
You have a full house with a pocket pair...This is the nuts a large majority of the time.
