black 9s
 

party 3/6

villain in this hand is a loose, spewing donkey. his game right now is "3bet me" because i showed down a big blind special and he missed that it was a big blind special. he's probably on tilt. not that him being on tilt would seperate him from his normal play by too much.

i'm dealt black 9s in the CO

unimportant monkey open limps UTG (this table was juicy)
some other guy folds. i raise. villain 3bets (shocking). the sb calls (?!). he's something of an unknown. seems too loose and not nearly aggressive enough. this rock-solid read has been attained over his play on the last seven hands. cold-calls like this have me suspicious.

tag bb folds, and the utg limper folds.

flop comes A crub 6 crub 8 spade

check, check, bet, call, I call (I don't think villain needs an A here to bet, I have a BD frush draw and a BD straight draw... I think peeling was pretty easy. Thoughts?)

Turn is a red A.

Check, check (?), check.

River is a T of black
Suspicious guy donks

My cards look like they're headed for the muck, yours?

Re: black 9s
 

tough spot. Flop is thin, but meh. Donk the turn, you can fold to a raise.

Re: black 9s
 

I would bet the turn. If SB raises I would fold, if villian raises, I would call down.

Are you putting SB on an A?

Cap preflop. You have the best hand a large majority of the time. I think not capping is a significant error.

Bet the flop. Hopefully the maniac will raise and clear the field and then you can take your chances at showdown. Also, you get more information about SB's hand. Like if maniac raises and SB 3 bets, you can toss your hand away right there.

I think SB missed his ck raise on the turn and is sitting squarely on an Ace. I definitely am not overcalling this but I hate to lay it down for one more bet.

Re: black 9s
 

I would probably bet out or check raise the flop and bet out when the A pairs the board and fold to a raise.
