Re: 99 in the SB - Stars $22 180 SnG, level 1....is this a donk play?
I dont really like it, becuase you are squeezed between an UTG raiser (usually strong hand) and a CO reraiser (usually stronger hand...see Gap concept). Since you are SOOO early, I might be tempted to call the 90 and hope to see a flop getting 3 to 1 and for set value.
After the flop, I am not sure what you were hoping to do. Yes you have an over pair to the board, but I really think the CO has a bigger overpair to you. You CR the flop and then got called, then a 3 comes and you check the turn?? Not sure what you are doing here other than spewing. If you are going to CR that flop, then you MUST follow up with a push on the turn. Checking simply begs to have the pot take away. And the ONLY hand you beat is AK.
But, I think I would have folded preflop simply so you dont get squeezed.
