Your bet-sizing flat out sucks. Bet more on the flop, bet more on the turn. You have a monster, you want to get some value. From the tone of your post I assume villain showed 9T here? If villain only ever pulls this line with legit "monsters", there is still plenty of hands you beat. Add in stuff like AA, AQ, QT etc and this is a clear push. You canīt narrow down villains holding to a single hand after this action.

I think his bet size on the flop is fine.. its 2/3, but I agree your bet on the turn is weak. I think you push here, there's just too many hands you're way ahead of at this point to let the hand go.

I think betting 2 on the flop is fine, maybe 2.5 would be slightly better though

flop bet is fine, tiny bit bigger turn bet would be good, and i go all-in here every time.

This is insane. I three-bet all-in without the slightest hesitation at this point. Villain's range includes all sorts of things that we blow out of the water:

AA
KK
A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
88
55

Of course, without knowing villain's postflop habits I can't be SURE this is a good play, but against a standard unknown here you are ahead FAR more often than you are behind. Get the money in and don't worry about it. If he's got exactly T9 you've still got outs to a winner, and if he's got exactly QQ then more power to him.
