Looks ok as long as you fold river UI. He would have to be a real calling station to call this river, but on the bright side it seems an awful lot like he's married to his hand.

Re: 98s hand
 

What xorbie said. Calling the turn looks a little marginal but against this guy it is probably fine if he likes to pay off on the river.

Re: 98s hand
 

On the river, if he folds you dont make up your implied odds from the turn. (actually I guess you do if you count the two nines)
If he calls a min raise you make a nice profit with this draw. Id min raise to ensure the call.

Re: 98s hand
 

I like the push here...I think you have a better chance of getting a call with a push than you do with a value bet raise.

What conditions make this preflop limp correct? Because I don't see a good reason not to fold preflop.

shrug, on a loose-passive table, i like limping to encourage other limpers behind me to get it multiway. if someone raises, i make a decision to call based on their position, other callers, and a hand range based on their raising history. i think the limp is fine...especially with a well stacked uber-donk playing almost every hand.

Results: in this hand, he insta-called my push with T4o.

I like limping this too on some tables... nice hand
