I just call. But maybe I'm wrong? It looks like the guy has something like K9, A9, J9. I doubt he has Q9 here because he'd be a little bit more aggressive on the flop and less aggressive on the turn.

So pushing is probably the better option here because he most likly loves his trips.

I push here everytime, especially since it's 6-max. No way I ever lay this down. If it was a full table, I might consider calling on the end, but I would need one hell of a read to do so.

Push. Sets/trips pay off boats every time. You can't worry about a higher boat here.
Stakes: Playing $0.10/$0.25 NL

Our opponent wants a call and is well aware that the board is paired. We're at the bottom end of hands that expect to win here a lot.

If he missed some kind of draw and built up the courage for a river bluff, then his bet would have been all-in.

Then again it's 6 max. Meh. A read might get me to stick the rest in.

The times your opponent has trips 9s here will be larger than the times he has a higher boat. Push.

You're looking at 89s vs A9s/o...push everytime and let them be married to their trips.

Push.. stacks aren't deep enough here to be worrying about boat over boat, IMO.

Against a rock, I like a call here, but that's about it.
