Fold preflop. And you beat enough 9s since he would play any 9 here in the SB to make it a call on the river. I don't really like your line at all though. As stated, I fold preflop. I also lead the turn.

[sourbeaver]

I don't think this was a loose call at all.
I can't lead turn, I raised because someone bet before me (lol? /images/graemlins/grin.gif)

Why don't you like the line ?

[Malachii]

Fold preflop. Easy call on the river.

[sourbeaver]

Easy call, really ?
What hands that I beat truly fit with his line ?
Keep his stats in mind.

[Malachii]

He's played it exactly like he's a donkey slowplaying open trips. I wouldn't be surprised to see any kind of 9 here, and you have an excellent kicker. I'm not folding here with so much money in the pot.

[sourbeaver]

Interesting to hear your perspective because I mostly thought there wasn't any logical way I was ahead there.
That would make my call less loose than I envisioned.

Would you raise the flop right away ? Raise more on turn ?
