Re: How to play 99 from early position...
it's definately a strong move. i would think your decision to use it in the future depends on 1) the read on your opponents, which you seem to have good ones, and 2) the % of times you get them to fold. with them raising, i would think that your 99 is a small favorite to two over cards Ak-AT kq, qjs jts or a big dog to a higher pair. i think that if you're getting better than 60-70 % folds, its a good move. also, your ability to come back from a short stack plays a part. if you play well short stacked, i think you can continue with the play. jmo
