WPP: 83
Location: Raise Pre-flop, Check/Raise Flop
SB is loose/bad
Rest of the table is a mix of (semi)tight/passives and tight/aggressives in a feeding frenzy.

I like the SB's pre-flop line Laughing

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (9 handed) converter

Preflop: Fnord is BB with AHeart, KHeart.
UTG folds, UTG+1 folds, MP1 folds, MP2 calls, MP3 folds, CO calls, Button folds, SB completes, Fnord raises, MP2 calls, CO calls, SB 3-bets, Fnord caps, MP2 folds, CO calls, SB calls.

Flop: (14 SB) 5Heart, JClub, QDiamond (3 players)
SB checks, Fnord bets, CO calls, SB calls.

Turn: (8.50 BB) 9Club (3 players)
SB bets, Fnord calls, CO folds.

River: (10.50 BB) TDiamond (2 players)
SB bets, Fnord raises, SB calls.

Final Pot: 14.50 BB

Results in white below:
SB has As 9h (one pair, nines).
Fnord has Ah Kh (straight, ace high).
Outcome: Fnord wins 14.50 BB.

I love people who will 3 bet A9o Smile

Don't you think that was a thin call on the turn?

I would have to consider that play by the small blind as about the worst way to play A9. A limp/reraise from early position shows strength to me. A limp/reraise from the small blind however is a definate sign of weakness trying to steal the hand because he thinks you are trying to steal the hand. Then on the flop, any strength his preflop raise gives him is gone as soon as he checks. Heck if he bets outright on the flop and turn, he might be able to take the pot depending on how long you hold onto AK. Then on the turn, he bets out his 9 with 2 overcards on the board and you clearly showing a lot of strength all hand. I kinda wonder what is going through peoples minds sometimes the way they play certain hands.

Yup, but my gutshot alone pretty much gets me there with a nice sized pot + position on the aggressor.

Weakness isn't the word I would use. Stupidity is closer. Online, not a single hand plays rationally like that. It's almost always some idiot with a weak Ace or something to that effect.

Oh, and you forgot the river bet/call. What raise/re-raise from the BB hand could I possibly have that he beats?
