    Default Weak overpair facing semi-scare card on turn

    Although that card was a low card, it does complete a straight draw and also is in the range of a lot of 2 pair type hands

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.02 BB (7 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    SB ($1.91)
    BB ($2)
    Hero (UTG) ($1.97)
    MP1 ($2.62)
    MP2 ($5.14)
    CO ($4.97)
    Button ($1.46)

    Preflop: Hero is UTG with 9, 9
    Hero raises to $0.08, 1 fold, MP2 calls $0.08, 4 folds

    Flop: ($0.19) 7, 3, 8 (2 players)
    Hero bets $0.12, MP2 calls $0.12

    Turn: ($0.43) 6 (2 players)
    Hero bets $0.30, MP2 raises to $0.72, Hero???

    The problem is that sometimes you'll get a nine making your opponent a straight so those are not always outs. Reads?

    only read is that i noticed opponent limp-calling a lot preflop. everything else seems pretty balanced

    40/10/3 ish

    I don't see how you could possibly be ahead here enough to justify paying off better hands, so raising would be really bad
    the worst he's doing this with is flush draw + overcards

    you can take one off though because his raise is small
    you have about 6 outs to the near nuts
    two outs that make the flush
    and nines are pretty tainted, but could win you the pot
    sometimes you're good, too
    pot odds are around 3-to-1 so you have to figure that you can take one off and fold to a river bet if you don't improve since if he had a hand like TT and missed his straight draw he wouldn't bet the river

    ...Good Question........Where am I?
    I think this is pretty ez AI. We have too many outs vs most of the hands that he has us beat with here. and we are ahead a decent enough portion of the time.

    soaking up ethanol, moving on up
    i check-call or bet-shove this turn. Which I choose is opponent and table image dependent.
