Straightforward?

"his call is terrible, there is NOTHING you could openraise with in MP that loses to KJ as the second nut-no pair. bad call on his part"
--In his defense, the table was going through a pretty weak-tight phase at that time, and I was openraising with a pretty wide range of hands. I could have had QJs, or... Okay, so it was a pretty bad call.

Scratch that...my brain is fried. Of course he loses to 99 and 88, but he does still beat QJ and tie KJ (offsuit)!

its still a bad call, but up against 88 or 99 he has 3 extra outs one that board as a T makes 88 or 99 into playing the board with a crappy kicker. The call is still bad as he is behind, probably WAY behind more often then not.

very nicely played....textbook....
depending on how you read the opponents flop call, you can decide whether to bet the turn....but as a default, this was well played...

bad call on opponent on river? for the most part...BUT...
if he really doesnt know how the hero plays, this is cheap info. it's only 1 more bet to call....hindsight:lets say you didnt flush...and you bet, he calls, split pot...is it that bad a call then? how about if he calls and has KQ? and sweeps it?

a case can be made for this player calling. obviously he wasnt sure of marbles holdings, so took a bet to find out...

if he was actually doing that...

ive done it against players i wasnt sure of...though i may have played the rest of the hand a little different...
