    a couple hands earlier i folded 99 on the button because the guy made the same 5x raise and i had no reads as he had just been moved to the table... after seeing him do it a couple times i determined he was just a donk and i couldnt pass up this opportunity. should i have went with the pair of 9s (8 handed) having no reads on the player? should i have folded the AJ and went after the passive pots? any input would be appreciated.
  2. pretty standard imo. i prob fold the 99 if i see a 5x raise as this players first raise with no other reads. and then when see him do it again i also take this line. 13BBs here... how many BBs you have when the 99 hand came up?

    i'm pretty sure folding 99 there is really bad...

  5. oh and AJ is super standard
  6. thats what i thought... id ship 9s 95% of the time but that 5x just threw me off... i had the table open that he came from and i didnt see him do it once... just got gunshy i guess. hindsight is always 20-20 as they say, bad fold obviously.
