NL50 TT hand
 

First orbit, no reads.

Looking at close to 4-to-1, can you fold this?

I would call. I think villain's range is wide enough to make you better than 21% to win the hand. It looks like a desperate short stack move to double-up. He may also be bluffing trip 9s. Even if you lose the hand, you'll learn something about him when you see his cards.

No.

Hero calls. River is a blank, and villain shows T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], so we split. Didn't see that one coming.
