Default So now that the best worst card came on the river???

Early in a 4/180. I just got moved to this table. I do have a read (w/out playing any actual hands against him) on MP2 that say he is 90+% on OPR with 11% ROI. Before the river hit, I told myself that a T would be a tricky card to deal with. Now that it is here...what do I do?

MP2 (t2175)
CO (t1235)
Button (t5615)
Hero (t1680)
BB (t1110)
UTG (t1960)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].

100, shove over a raise? 4/180 ppl always go broke here with lesser hands. also might do 100/call raise sometimes

I bet 75 and hope not to get pushed too hard, want to call a smallish 3 bet, then kick myself for not 4 betting all in against his middle 2 pair. 3rd nuts is a pretty good hand.

bet 100. Would be tough if you get reraised but I doubt MP2 would limp with AQ is he is a good player. Q9s maybe but you are just unlucky if he has the cooler. I dont think I am folding this.

I go broke right here every day and twice on Sunday. No way an AQ is out there in a 4/180 with no pre-flop raise. Q9 is pretty much all I'm worried about here, and too many people will felt themselves with two pair in this spot for me to not push the 3rd nuts.

Wow that's such a sick spot. My instinct says Button has 2 pair JT maybe. It is also very likely that MP2 has the same hand 89 b/c it makes more sense to limp with 89 than Q9 or AQ. I still think we have to get it in.

I dont think the button can make a raise like that with just 2p considering the river action. He has to worry about u and MP2, top two is a flat call, a big raise like that is only getting called by a big hand, I think the button was being passive w AQ and is praying for a 89, Q9, or a donk who cant get off 2p with all the river action.

I'd be interested in seeing the results of this hand.

I think TT is a possibility also.
