Default Re: How do you play the nuts here.

Is it that safe to assume that someone holds J9 here when there are only 2 ways left that they can make it?

You all seem to be assuming that one of the players in this hand definitely has the J9 and is most likely freerolling. I have checked the results but don't want to be results oriented and I wonder how you all can make that exact assumption when there are so many other (more likely) holdings that they would be making this bet with

When the pot is raised the size of the pot and then re-raised the size of the pot again don't you give someone credit for at least having the nuts or a draw that's more than 50% favorite on such a coordinated board?

Even if you are in the lead on teh flop, you almost certainly won't have the nuts at the river. These guys like their hands and you want to dodge all the turn and river cards that will kill you.

The vulnerable nuts on the flop with no redraws in PLO when you're not HU is shaky to say the least. When 2 others like their hands a lot you'll be hard pressed to be making money by shoving chips in.
