Even if you think the button is raising with less than ace jack...maybe QJ, JT, you are still practically drawing dead to anyone with top pair.

I am pretty shocked that someone who plays the 215s would so stubbornly defend this kind of play.

Do you play 215s out of interst?
I will say again, i do not whole heartedly agree with raising here. I am just arguing against it as it seems feasable in this scenario.

I have not said how i DID play it, but i still dont think that raising is disastarous. Hypothetically it is a good argument as well as the understanding it could do for the forun the good of the forum.

Very easy fold. Quick reasoning: 3 others in, PFR has you beat around half the time depending on his range, the other 2 may or may not have a jack, you'll have to bet 150+ chips to get anywhere and they won't fold 40% of the time combined.

Very good point i agree with it all except that 1 of those 3 has already shown weakness.

So with your 40% prediction i will win this pot 60% of the time?

No, read my post again. I said they won't fold 40% combined*. You won't win this pot 40% of the time with this bet, much less 60.

A bet is not good and most of the better posters here have already said why.

*if you do not know why it's exactly 40%, drop down now

oops! sorry i didnt notice the other limpers called the buttons raise. I like your post flop bet heads up only.

Also after playing tonight I realized that 99 a borderline hand for me to raise preflop, its close but I will usually limp unless the table is extra passive. 10,10 or better I will raise in any position under any circumstances.
