Silver Level
Preflop call is not standard. I always call with JTs, but J9s is a little marginal. Still, he did not c-bet very often (and his double-barreling frequency was also low) so I decided to look at a flop with a speculative hand, because I will often get to see the turn as well.
Villain is 39/18, steals 36 (so he's positionally aware), c-bets 37% with a WTSD of 32%. Sample isn't huge; about 350 hands. I had a note on him that he plays draws passively.

I think Belgo coined the "FP Theorem" recently, after I said that you should basically always fire a second barrel with a strong draw on the turn because your fold equity is so great. That's still true, but doesn't apply here, because he called a raise OOP on the flop and the board actually made any made hand of mine even less likely. So I decide to let my outs materialize, unsurprisingly miss, but find a new hand I can represent. So I go for it.
Works often enough to be worth it?
