You might not like this preflop...what about postflop?

Well played on every street.

If he calls the turn, you're checking behind on the river of course ...

A villain was 36/7/1.8 folding TPTK after a single flop raise? Yeah right.

I suspect he might have said that in an attempt to trick me into exclaiming, "WHAT??? You folded TPTK on the flop?? To one bet?? I had ___!"

I wouldn't limp A9s UTG, but I'm too tight as it is [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I like the flop raise, turn raise also

check behind on the river if he calls you

I sincerely doubt a player at 2/4 w/ those stats is folding TPTK to a flop raise.
I like postflop, but I think you should be careful..heres why:

what's the playes range raising multiple limpers from the BB? JJ+, AQo+, something like that?

You lose to all of the hands except AQ, so inless you think he can make a fold w/ a lower PP (I think this guy was lying), I would tread carefully...that's all.

Also, fold PF.

I think he was lying too...trying a little trickery perhaps. Sure, I lose to TT-QQ. But if he's just praying not to see an ace or king on the flop and gets immediately raised, how likely is a guy like this to give up on the turn? And as other posters have suggested, I would have checked behind him on the river if he'd called the turn.

Just fold it preflop? Aw, that's no fun at all. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

*grunching*

Call UTG with A9s?! What is this, three-handed? Fold preflop. You're asking for kicker trouble otherwise. I only call Axs in late with a bunch of limpers (raise/fold otherwise.)

Flop raise...interesting play. Either raise or fold I guess. Pot is getting big with a lot of players hanging around. It worked, didn't it?

Turn - yes you got lucky. Villain is lying IMO, no way does he muck TPTK against that raggedy board and a single raise. He's just trying to make it look like he wasn't bluffing, which he was.

NH (?!)

I think this limp is fine at most party 2/4 tables so if your table is "average" it should be ok.

With the BB raising pf it is possible this is just a continuation bet and when you are behind with an over card and the bd nut flush draw you still can't fold this here. Raising is much better than calling because you have a chance to clear the field and get it hu.

Once he checks the turn I think you are ahead here a lot of the time and betting here gives you the chance to fold TT-QQ.

Nah, bet the turn and take a free showdown if you don't improve.

Limp is marginal, depends on the table.

Flop raise is good imo. I'd rather raise than call if I'm playing, and I don't want to fold here.

Turn bet is pretty necessary, I'd probably fold to a c/r.

No way he had what he said he had.
