on the flop although it's multiway i don't really think raising will be THAT great... MP reps some sort of strong hand like 33 or 99 or maybe just some overpair. i could raise the flop but i think my hand becomes pretty face up and he'll probably fold any overpair. also i can let BB come along/raise if he likes and take it from there.

on the turn after MP bets so big i didn't see a reason to raise. the pot will be so large on the river then the only play is to ship so i thought i can just let him keep firing. what i didn't think of at the time was that a :spade: or 9 would kill my action if it came. not sure if that alone is reason to raise?

river plays itself even tho i considered pocket 99 as part of his range but that would just be sick...

Hey DrDunne,

Flop call is ok, not the most dangerous texture. Raising is still fine in large multiway pot.

Turn flat is fine. I don't think the possibility of scare-cards hitting is good enough reason to raise. Also 9 may or may not be a scarecard. I.e he might fold to turn raise generally but actually fill up on river with a 9 and stack off.

Hand is fine overall imo.

yeah thats what i thought.. just really unlikely that a :spade: or 9 will fall. and at least if a :spade: does fall he wont always be shutting down anyway.

i just took a closer look at the river decision...

i think betting smaller might be a better idea...
1)if he has 9x, he raises and the money goes in and its easy game.
2) if he has TT/JJ (maybe a slowplayed QQ+) then he might raise vs a small bet or he'll call a smaller bet, but he will most likely not call off 70bb simply because i look like 9x or 6x.

what do you think?

Hey DrDunne,

Definitely sounds reasonable. Allows you to extract value from the weaker part of his range without losing value from the stronger part of his range.

However since you have only 1/2pot left, he might hero off JJ anyway. But what you are saying is true as a general principle.
