Default A9 Ugly played, but I hate all lines...

BTN is 34/12 /1.2 over enough. Bad player in general
BB is a 40/30/2.5 that's going to showdown too oftenly

How do you play this hand and why?


Limit: $2/$4
5 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is CO with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
UTG folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises</font>, Button calls, SB folds, BB calls.

Flop: 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (6.5SB, 3 players)
BB checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Button raises</font>, BB calls, Hero calls.

Turn: A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (6.25BB, 3 players)
BB checks, Hero checks, Button checks.

River: 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (6.25BB, 3 players)
<font color="#cc0000">BB bets</font>, Hero calls, <font color="#cc0000">Button raises</font>, BB calls, Hero calls.

Results:
Final pot: 12.25BB

What else can you do? I would probably fold the river when I'm playing good, but I can't hate on the call..

Are you checking the turn to c/r? Because I think you should lead the turn and fold to a raise. I don't think you are getting raised by any worse hands. I also don't mind calling two bets on the river.

I am folding this one. Button could just as well play with open cards.

I would just lead the turn, it's probably a scare card and giving a free card here wouldn't be nice. Button isn't that agressive, so you can't expect him to bet this turn for you.

You theorically have to fold this river I guess.. calling it isn't too bad, I think the EV difference is minimal.

I would probably lead on the turn and fold to a raise, for some reason I'm really loving to bet/fold the turn with all kinds of hands. My turn agression is even at 3.1 for my last 9000 hands.

( So probably I'm doing it too much and this isn't a good spot for it but I would love to hear why).

That seems passive/straightforward enough to B/F the turn and fold the river the 2nd time.
