I guess I'd fold...
Looks like a donkish move, but often he will have at least OESD + FD. Stinks so horrible like a 9 [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] |

Re: $225: KK, TP pairs board
Rationally I would say fold, this smells like set to me, but 88 plays like this.
I am pretty sure it is one of those spots that I end up pushing and getting called by a set just to insult myself saying: "You knew it why did you do it?". |

This is really though. I don't believe such a donkish psb is a 9 here. Still looks like a combo draw/great semi-bluff or maybe even TT.

Do you know how villain doubled up? I don't see how he'd have a 9 in his hand in the first place...A9, T9? I'm thinking more like medium pairs like 88 and TT. I'm getting it in against an unknown.

Re: $225: KK, TP pairs board
Why would villain bet the turn so big with a 9?
Seems strange. I think this is a draw way too often to fold.. |

Re: $225: KK, TP pairs board
Why is everybody not mentioning a possible set?
As i said in my post before I think it's the most likely holding for villain. On a general note I noticed that this forum tend to underestimate sets while a limp/call UTG is almost always a mid pair rather then suited connectors. I really doubt villain is commiting that early with 88 here and TT wants a cheap showdown. |

The 9 is an obvious scare card, so why would he make this huge bet? It just doesn't seem to be the way a person would try to extract value if they held a FH here. |

Re: $225: KK, TP pairs board
i think there is <5% chance that someone would be playing FH this way on turn at 225.
I am pushing here since there are a lot of hands we can beat which could bet this way, and most hands that have us beat would bet different. |
