Underfull with overpair

MP is 30/0/0.4 over 70 hands. 

Call or 3-bet the river? If a 9 hadn't fallen, I would've folded to a raise from the MP guy, obviously. I won't pollute the thread with my reasoning yet.

I think the river 3-bet is a must. Getting capped by this guy is sickening but you still have the best hand more often then not after the river raise.

Exactly, but I only have to be ahead more than 2/3 of the time to profit from raising.

I thought this was interesting, since this is a spot where you should raise when a super passive player bets into you. I think even if it gets capped you win sometimes, probably enough to call. How often does this guy have a slowplayed set or the case 9?

The only set that matters is TT. I guess he has that as much as anything else. Probably exactly as much as 88. I don't now how much he has a 9. I think the most likely hand for him after the river raise is Tx. Donks tend to thing this is the nuts here. He could also have a st8 and just not get poker.

I think u need to 3bet this. If he plas a 9 like this then he sux. (we already know he sux from his stats)

This will be a 10 to often not to 3bet.

Hahaha maybe its a slowplayed QJ, ive seen it happen

I wouldnt get sick of a cap at all. I think we are good the majority of the time even if we are capped.
