Bad play on this hand?

hummusx · #1 05-04-2005, 09:09 AM

I was really surprised when I was going through some tournament histories and saw this fold. Of course, from a results perspective it was just a massively good read on my part. In all seriousness though, I think my though was that in an unraised pot, I could be facing just about anything here. What do you think should I have folded on the flop?

This is probably the least interesting hand ever.

I fold this on the flop, like, routinely.

LOL What the hell. I could swear that I had 99, not 95. This IS the least interesting hand ever. But just for fun, let's say I had the 99 that I thought I had when I posted this. Then what?

This post does not include a bad beat history, so it is far from the least interesting hand ever.

Well, if this was a 99 hand, I would want to bet out on the flop and then slow WAY down if called (especially considering that the next card to come off is a spade).

I would choose one of two lines: Bet the flop or check fold. Both seems reasonable.

Check folding the flop with 99 on a 752 board would make this a pretty interesting hand, but mostly because we'd all yell at you.

I would always bet at a 752 rainbow flop, but with the flushdraw i have been check folding occasionally.
Looking at it now i agree with you, it looks pretty weak check folding this flop.
It looks like i better try to raise my aggresion on level 1 and 2.
