I expect to get flamed for this but I just hate playing hands like Q9o OOP. You're only getting 5-1 on your call and if you only pair on the flop you never know where you're at vs a decent player. If you're hand is good you have reverse implied odds so you don't get payed off very well. Maybe it's a matter of skill but I play on line and unless I'm up against a fish (when I raise), I fold preflop.

BTW, that MP limp seems kinda fishy. Actually, Q9o isn't enough of a hand to go after a fish with. Anyway, that's my 2 cents worth. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
