The difference between me and a good poker player (NC, retarded)

[Haupt_234]

Nice hand. The only truly debatable street in the hand is preflop- I would 3bet if the table was playing fairly tight but go ahead and call if it was nice and loose (which I bet it was).

The good player would have made it 3 bets before the flop to see if he could limit the field. I dont think he would have folded the river.

This is not where you want to start making expert folds.

folding here would be horrible

This is a perfect spot for somebody to take a shot at you. An over card completing straight & flush draws. Folding is bad.

First FYP ever and it's a good one.

A bluff here is unlikely, but he could have 2-pair. Call.

standard river bet/call.

quite simply you have way too much a hand to not value bet river. your hand will also be good way too often not to call the raise (however you will obviously lose some of them.)

keep playing same, B

I doubt I would have succeeded, but I guess it's better than just calling. I would generally do this with TT but don't do this with 99 because TT is more likely to win UI, and because I'm OOP. Thoughts on this?
