Re: Too aggressive with my underpair or SOP?

what better hands? 99 and TT are the only ones I can think of, but I don't know what they're doing at the river to begin with if they plan on folding fifth street.

You can't see an opponent with TT calling the turn while thinking along these lines?
[turn] "Okay, he might have a J, or even a monster, but this guy is pretty aggressive when he gets involved in a hand and it could just be a flush draw, or maybe a flush draw plus a pair."
[river] "Oops, the flush draw came through. He bet it too. Now I'm definitely toast."
I don't know. A while ago, I resolved to bet scare cards in spots where I had the initiative in the hand and could safely fold to a raise. How many incorrect folds this has induced, I don't know - for obvious reasons, it's much easier to see the calling and raising mistakes that our opponents make then their folding mistakes. But I definitely have the sense that this has made my game stronger.
