    just fold the flop without any reads.

    looks like if ur gonna get him off the 9 (possibly any pair..), you gotta bet more, possibly even go all in. not worth it imo.

    you can't make people fold!

    fold the flop and fps is generally -ev @ 50nl.

    If someone check/raises you, it generally means they like their hand, so not the best spot to go around trying to bluff them off of it.

    Yeah, a few dodgy plays like this mixed with quite a few more two outers (including one that stopped me tripling up) has resulted in me being 6 buy-ins down after 3k hands.

    No big deal, right ... ?

    You arent folding out nearly any hand here. Given the action what do you put him on? A 9 isnt folding in most cases at these levels, and a 6 or a 7 definitely arent although both are a little unlikely. No overpairs are folding and there is a good chance ace high is calling. What better hands fold here? I honestly cannot think of any that actually make sense, just fold the flop.

    You clearly tried this against the wrong player.
