Is this a bad river bet? i was perplexed.

Good comments. I think that maybe this hand was played online, based on some of Tyler's other posts, which tends to play more like a higher limit in real life.

"River is 9 .
SB checks, I bet, UTG raises, folded back to me and I call."

didnt it occur to you that at least one of those people were calling all those bets with an 8??

you played the rest of the hand very well.

One would think, LOL. I have a bad tendency to get a tunnel vision when I have a big hand and I just bet the crap out of it w/o bothering to think what my opponents are working with. It's something I'm working on. Hopefully I'll grow out of it as I get more experience.

Do we get to see the results?

Just some thoughts...

The river action was I bet out, the next guy raised, folded back to me and I called.

He had 99 for the rivered boat. Ouch.
