No [censored]. Let's try and lighten up a little around here. Everybody take some valium or something. Geez.

Can we at least change this to 66 or KJ or something?

Well, my line was to 3-bet, but my friends arguement was that 3-betting doesn't clear anybody out (or at least very few people fold) and that 3betting, when I know it will be capped creates a pot that I can't take down with mere aggression. If I choose to just call, I can shut out a lot of draws on the flop with a raise (as we know super agro will bet). Also, with a hand like 99, you are often folding on many flops, so why juice it? We know that it will be at least a 3-way pot, and possible more, so it is unlikely that 99 can win it UI.

That was his position. My position is the 3bet will often get this to be 3-way, and it is an equity edge to raise here. My friend was pretty adamant, so I thought I'd post it here.

As it worked out, Uber-agro and I capped a 7 high [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] flop 4-ways after seeing capped 5-way PF action. K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] on the turn and a bet from UTG was all it took to get me out of there though I miss hitting my one and only out on the river. K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] took it down from UTG and uber-agro MP1 had A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Monster pot. Wish I had stayed to catch my out. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

[/ QUOTE ]the KJ would be a no brainer, but 66 could be debatable.

Oh it was awesome. This guy was paying off like a slot machine. Spew spew spew. If you had two pair, you were good to cap every street agianst him. Sadly, I was sharing him with 2 other pros before the two posters sat down. I quit for dinner soon after the posters sat down.
