    Default is there a play for this situation?

    in the middle of the tournament... before ante... 3 player in the hand (limper+blinds) all 3 players have about same amount of chips... around 5000... the BB is 200... here is the situation:

    i have 9h9d
    flop comes 4h, 4s, 8s,

    i check
    BB bet 1/2 pot
    limper call

    i put BB on trips
    limper on flush draw with 2 over

    is there a move i can pull off here? i am just thinking about the problem... i cant just call... if i raise i think BB will reraise... limper will fold... is there any way for me to get limper to fold but BB not reraise? so maybe i can bluff again if flush hit?

    You're going to try to 'hit' your flush, and then assume BB will lay it down?

    Just fold.

    The real problem with this hand is that you just called from the sb with 99. With one limper in the field, 500 in the pot, what more do you need to raise when you only have 5000 chips. Raise it up son, nl holdem isnt for the timid.
