    I just call. But maybe I'm wrong? It looks like the guy has something like K9, A9, J9. I doubt he has Q9 here because he'd be a little bit more aggressive on the flop and less aggressive on the turn.

    So pushing is probably the better option here because he most likly loves his trips.

    I push here everytime, especially since it's 6-max. No way I ever lay this down. If it was a full table, I might consider calling on the end, but I would need one hell of a read to do so.

    Push. Don't try to save pennies with this boat.

    haha, im too weak.

    Push. Sets/trips pay off boats every time. You can't worry about a higher boat here.
    Stakes: Playing $0.10/$0.25 NL

    Our opponent wants a call and is well aware that the board is paired. We're at the bottom end of hands that expect to win here a lot.

    If he missed some kind of draw and built up the courage for a river bluff, then his bet would have been all-in.

    Then again it's 6 max. Meh. A read might get me to stick the rest in.

    push for sure! opp has trips 9, typical trips play, get his stack

    The times your opponent has trips 9s here will be larger than the times he has a higher boat. Push.

    You're looking at 89s vs A9s/o...push everytime and let them be married to their trips.

    Never read any stickies or announcements
    Push.. stacks aren't deep enough here to be worrying about boat over boat, IMO.

    Against a rock, I like a call here, but that's about it.
