T9s is a big hand against a bunch of loose passives. Sorry but I'm gonna risk my 15 chips here and flop a big flush draw or an OESD

Have fun chasing flush draws OOP in tournaments, I hear that turns out really well ('hear' because I haven't been in that situation in a while, but people bitch about it all the time so it must work, right?)

Again why do you people want to not answer the question I'm asking.

I know that good players will raise you out of pots so you dont have odds to draw but these are not good players.

This line is all the more terrible because you've managed to get the .5%, perfect flop in a low buyin where everything under the sun calls, and then make sure they don't call.

What do you think of my proposed line?

Sounds good but you fail to protect your hand against large clubs.

what do you do when a club falls on the turn?

If the club falls I fold.

Re: $22 T9s first hand
 
What about a large raise like 300-400 hoping someone with 2 pair/lower flush/big club calls or even someone goes allin?

Then going allin on a nonclub turn.

I don't really want someone to call 300 with a bigger club if I'm honest.

If you want to try to do your thing of extracting value from the idiots, then you have to push.

Personally I like to wait for a bigger edge.. which thankfully will appear on the next card most of the time.

In higher limit games then you clearly need to get some value out of this hand, but against idiots, the top priority should almost always be not going bust.

I wouldnt get away with this in the bigger games obviously because they'd be more aggressive but here I can.

So you keep playing like a rock in low limit games and I'll keep playing loose.

But really I do not need preflop advice here so dont waste your time arguing about something that is not really important.

And your nic should be scuba chump.

So why not post something useful instead of just a cheap shot.
