    I like the river shove, I prefer raising turn as said but I do like the river shove. What we don't have though is enough info on villain to know how good it is. This is because we know we've taken a strong line, a lot of villain's would recognise we're taking a strong line, but it comes down to their stubbornness or their mental handicap.

    Villain's call with 99 here is either sick or retarded depending on whether or not they bet the river to induce, and at these stakes if that would be unlikely with an overpair it's fucking improbable with an underpair. So, far more retarded than sick. Instead of villain thinking "hero floated my flop bet, but will also call turn because it's a pretty decent barrel card, so now he's got to the river with a wide-ish range I might be able to get maximize the amount of his stack I get by inducing", what villain is really thinking is "derp derp derp bet small has to call oh I wins derp".

    Nice move, apparently wrong villain, unless you have reads to post which you missed out previously.

    Oh, and don't post results next time, you would have got a far better discussion.
