PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (9 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

MP2 ($147.70)
Hero ($199.30)
CO ($35)
Button ($357.55)
SB ($101.70)
BB ($18.50)
UTG ($40.40)
UTG+1 ($115.70)
MP1 ($98.50)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with A, 9. CO posts a blind of $1.
4 folds, Hero raises to $5, CO (poster) calls $4, 1 fold, SB calls $4.50, 1 fold.

Flop: ($16) 2, 9, 7 (3 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $13, CO folds, SB calls $13.

Turn: ($42) 9 (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $30, SB raises to $83.7, Hero calls $53.70.

River: ($209.40) 8 (2 players)

Final Pot: $209.40

I have a tight image and SB is a 13/9-ish TAGG. Normally I probably wouldn't open here preflop but there's an extra blind. Standard y/n/m?

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

Just beware that they know that you know this and CO has position on you. Given the turn card, I don't see how we're not felting this. However, I think we need to check a turned Ace behind.

I don't credit most players at this level with thinking that deeply, but regardless it seems likely (to me) that I'm behind after my flop bet is check/called and he flat called preflop unless he has 88 or 66 or something.

And I agree on checking behind a turned Ace. I actually thought about that in the hand for some reason.

On the turn it feels like I'm against an overpair or a set, amirite?

Another nine is most likely.

The way that Hero played this hand is perfect.

Yeah, it seems more and more that people are trying to get cute with big pairs like how villain played (though he flopped a set and stacked me, which is kinda irrelevant).

I always try to think what I could differently in this situation when the villain shows a set (full house). I guess its a perfect turn card for villain.

Does anyone every check behind on the turn to induce a bluff on the river?

I'd be more tempted to do this if I didn't think villain had a hand he would continue with, and/or if villain had a smaller stack that would make it easier to get it all in on the river.
