The paradox of making money from opponents mistakes

[ErrantNight]

Only one of the following two scenarios is true:

(1) He knows you have a 9, and is therefore incorrect to call a bet or to make a bet

(2) He doesn't know you have a 9 and must therefore play against your range of hands in which case both betting and calling are close but you must start factoring in things like: what he thinks of you, what he thinks you think of him and so on and so forth.

You can't have it both ways.
