$55 hand, overpair with 99
I wasn't too sure what to do on this hand because of the numerous limpers and unraised pot.

I'd play it the same way. My question to those others who feel the same is how high a range of PP do you play it the same? Do you reraise/push with QQ-AA?

[/ QUOTE ] I'd probably play it the same with any overpair here but with JJ-AA it would be different since I would have raised preflop and not been as scared of the trips. |

oh yeah, i'd forgotten about PF being different for AA-QQ. I don't raise JJ PF though, in the early levels. It gets exponentially worse and worse as you move down the PPs.

I think this is actually a pretty nice spot to check behind, and you're going to call any reasonable river bet. I think this has the benefit of extracting more from hands you beat and losing just slightly more to hands you lose to, since I doubt he's going to make a river bet much bigger than 200. Also, the turn bet looks pretty weak. When you're making a turn bet that's smaller than your flop bet, that just comes across as very tentative, so I think if for some reason I was going to bet instead of checking behind here, I'd bet more like 200. |

[/ QUOTE ] Yea I like that idea a lot better now that I think about it. I didn't even realize that I had bet less on the turn than the flop, I normally avoid doing that. Looking back the turn bet is pretty bad. |

Re: $55 hand, overpair with 99
After two cold calls I'de be fairly confident that I'm up against trips. It feels strange, but I also think that checking the turn is the best way to go. I might fold to a river bet though, it gets tricky there. If he leads on the river I think that its much more probable that he has trips than he is bluffing you, and most players will check or bet very weak with a 6.
