no way. the pot is much bigger than the necessary size it needs to be to make up for the times you're drawing dead. i could do the math, but am way too lazy.

edit - also, it's not even like you had to call 3 cold anywhere or something. i don't even know why you posted this.

Nope, don't take the hint. With 10 BB in on the Turn go ahead and call without worry.
But don't count on that A to bail you out and plan to fold the River without a Flush.

Don't be mean to the guy - he's trying to become a better player like the rest of us.

Because I'm trying to escape for the title "weak/tight". /images/graemlins/smile.gif
And just looking for some reassurance.

i'm not being mean. i was actually curious why he posted it is because i know him to be a good player based on his previous posts and this is such an easy hand to play.

I hate to say it, but I had "feeling" that when he check-raised the turn I thought he had 9-9 in the hole for the boat and I was drawing dead. I thought I was correct to call it to the river. Maybe my question should have been: Should I ever go with my gut?

Amirillo Slim says, "Hunches are for dogs making love". Maybe he's right.

What about all the other times where the same action transpired, you were *sure* he had 99, and he turns over something else. We tend to forget those hands and feelings, which are much more frequent, and remember the one time we "knew," all along, what they had. then we usually post about how we "knew," shortly thereafter.

Good point.
