NL500: 99 preflop to close the action

he says that he does not have enough chips to go all in

[/ QUOTE ] wtf does that mean?

This is basic odds man + a little read dependent.

90:270.. that's only 1:3.

You need at least 1:7.5.. Does UTG have a good hand? Will he pay you off readily if you hit your set? I'd probably lay it down here.
