99, crying call?

[Nakamura]

Villain is 26/13 over 300 hands. I should probably fold this PF, but I make a mistake and raise for <AI.

Cry and call?

Betting the flop is generally a bad idea because we turn our hand into a bluff since we are never calling a shove. If we bet here, it's better to have 72o than something with value. When he checks twice, he usually has nothing so we can go ahead and bet for value/protection.

You shouldn't c-bet every flop when you are the PFR. There are times like this where it's better to go for pot control.

I know I can shove 12BB here, but I think 14BB is probably only AK, TT+. Idk, it's close but shoving is definitely better than std raising.

You've kind of reminded me to update the blog. I had a good day until the last 20 games; spewed over $200 and most of the day's profits.

yea i agree shoving pre is probably best here.

ugg i guess call as played.

[Duffryn]

I would shove pre in that position and with that stack.

Cry and call is definitely the way forward on that river, facing that bet.
