    Default how to 99?

    thats one of the few hands i cant play. lets say your in cut of you have 2 people in middle position that call and blinds are 50 100 you have a stack at 6500 and the others have fairly the same size stack (lol yes this is one of the situations that i was in). so i make a kind of standard raise and bet 500 both blinds fold and both limpers call. flop was 447 rainbow. they both check i bet 1100 they both call turn was a 2. guy in the first limp seat bets 1500 next guy folds. so it gets back to me the pot was like 7k. it gets to me and i fold figured he had set but need more help on how to play 99

    I would probably go back "all in" in a big bet like that if i had 99 and the flop or turn was all below my pair... the only thing that could scares is the flush... but i think i would call it

    Default PUSH

    maybe a risky and play but pushing all in on the turn is what i would do if im beat then im beat, what could he have A4 suited? pocket 2's? pocket 7's? i dont believe he does in that situation , i put him on q10 clubs trying to see a flop

    What was your plan for the hand?
    Any reads on the villain?
    What hands is he likely to be holding here?

    Shove over villain's turn bet and expect to be called by a worse hand often (e.g. A7, 56s, 33, 55, 66, 88). If he has A4 or 45 its just unlucky. Villain is almost never showing up with 44, 77 or TT-AA here, and hardly ever 22.

    In the batter's box. Already 0-1 count....
    I push on the flop. If they have the 4, so be it.

    We should always be looking to learn in game we call online poker. Matter not the result, we should learn from every situation. We can take advantage when things don't go our way by takes notes. Be sure to always take notes on players in your game. Especially in a regular game that you play. These will prove to be worth wild one day. This I promise.

    thanks two pair. i couldnt agree more. i believe notes are the key in online poker (at least for me) because i play $1 $2 on ub and have played with the same poeple a few times. by taking notes i know what type of player they are and what style i need to play to make the most money i can.

    I think with a flop of 447 you are very strong with 99. So wehn you got it always call. You are very unlucky when you lose the hand with a flop of 447. I think its very diffecult if the flop is 74Q then you got to fold i think
