Default pocket nines. look good?

the only thing i am not sure about is capping vs a third person.

also, i could use some advice on the turn. SB is LAA 52/13/2.5. MP2 is solid.

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (8 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Preflop: Hero is BB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, MP2 calls, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, SB completes, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, MP2 calls, SB calls.

Flop: (6 SB) J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP2 calls, <font color="#CC3333">SB raises</font>, Hero calls, MP2 calls.

Turn: (6 BB) K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP2 calls, SB calls.

River: (9 BB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 3-bets</font>, SB calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero caps</font>, MP2 calls, SB calls.

Final Pot: 21 BB

Too bad there's a cap, otherwise you'd get a lot more value out of MP2's flush.

I'm not normally leading this turn, knowing the board alone. With the info you provided, though, I definately bet. Though the K is not a fun card to see, SB sucks, and MP2 really can't be on any draw other than the flush. This is why I [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] posts that aren't against unknowns.

This seems awfully close to being a brag post...

Aggressive play with the flop raiser (so he's tried to c/r people off their hands before?). If raised again on the turn (and again if the diamond falls and isn't the 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]) I'd be folding this like cake batter, though.

This occurrance is rare enough that the river is an absolute must-cap.

Very nice. The check raise probably would have got me to fold.

:grunch: SB looks like he was on a FD. His c/r on the flop is a bit disconcerning, and makes betting on the turn a little scary b/c he may be trying for another c/r. But I guess you can't let them have a free card esp. since MP2 looks like he was also on a FD.

I liked the way you played it. You don't put anyone on KK or JJ because it was unraised preflop. And unless someone was playing JK or J9/J6 (less likely) you have the nuts. Cap that river.
