SB is 13/9/30(3/2/1.5) (VP$IP/PFR/WSD(AF-F/AF-T/AF-R)) over 2000+, but no table reads. Is this worth raising?

Weird. I don't see how any of those 8's help him. I would raise and have him show AJo.

I guess Villain may be going for a bet/3-bet with 98s or T8s here, and T9 isn't completely out of the question, but I still think you're probably best.

Your TAG opponent may be taking a bet-fold line, so you might not get called, but I think I like a raise.

I am going to hate it if SB 3-bets, though. (I'll admit, I would probably pay off that 3-bet.)

Edit: Ah, jeez, I just noticed this was a steal situation. I'm not as optimistic anymore about being best, and I'm tempted just to call. At the same time, if you do raise, I think your chances of getting paid off are better in a steal situation than they would be otherwise. I guess I'm saying that, since it's a steal situation, the risk and the reward both just went up.

Thats funny you said that. After I posted that I thought no looks more like AJs, but was too lazy to correct it. Thanks for doing it for me.

Does a player that tight call a raise form the SB with 89 or T8s? I don't see it happening very often.

I like the river raise, he put you on a flush draw i guess. you beat his 2 pair. or maybe he thinks that the only way he can win with a busted draw. anyway i think you are ahead very often. I just raised a river donkbet and villain showed 22 to my AA. GG!!!
