i see players do this, too, and i think its a HUGE leak. i used to do it alot to "justify the chase." i figured TPTK is strong, vulnerable or not, and i would jam to charge draws. i figured that while i was likely ahead, i was also tying myself to the hand so i couldnt fold if the board gets ugly. i would do the same with draws. if i liked my draw, i would donk a turn when i expected a raise...telling myself i was building a pot and calling raises "with odds."
i stopped doing that crap, and my winrate went up. hmmm.
the 9 is just too vulnerable in a raised pot to be capping a 5way with. if i flop that 9, i am putting myself on 5 outs....period.
if that was villain's thinking, i want him at my tables all the time.
