No reads.

I might call if I know he's really bad, but his line is pretty strong. He could have had a draw on the flop but his turn bet looks nothing like a draw to me. About the only non-draw he raises that flop with is AT or a set, both of which are unlikely considering our hand and his check pre flop.

On a side note you can sometimes raise these hands profitably from the blinds after the button limps. Some weak players will limp/fold a huge range on the button and our hand has heaps of potential if called. I wouldn't raise a limp from any other position though.

You wouldn't raise the otb after a limper?

Anyway. I call this and call river too if he bets.

wp.

Raise pf would be fine if button were deeper. Here he's too shallow to make 98s a profitable raise

I mean I wouldn't raise this hand from the SB if for example MP limped.




True actually

He may have had 10 9... the problem is the limp PF. this give us no info, so he may have A 10, or he may have J 7, or 76, or even JX and be on the draw, or two club rags.

I call. I call up to 90% PSB on river unless it's 4 to a straight. From now on, we pound anyone and everyone from the button so we don't get in these spots any more.
