Playing 99 With Reckless Abandon

[jrobb83]

Main opponent was loose, but no read as far as aggressiveness.

Once the mp backs down, (and especially by the river) MP doesn't have a spade. Still might fold this to the flop raise or maybe he takes a free card on the turn and you get to showdown cheaply?
You're drawing to the 4th nut flush...I don't think this is a +EV situation.



That being said, throw me a pint of Jack and I'm playing it the same way.
