This is not my hand! Some poker vlogger had this hand in Reno recently, 5 handed at the Pepper mill
So I don't know this dude- it's the first video I've seen from him.

Hand in question: Hero is dealt on the button.
----
UTG is a loosish player... I don't think he's unreasonable, but the vlogger was mad bc he called his flop bet a hand prior with K high (it was vs Hero's donk bet on a draw heavy board)... whatever man :boring:
----
UTG raises to $15, Hero 3! to 50, BB cold calls, UTG calls
FLOP: POT: $150
---
DECISION: BB xs, UTG xs, Hero ?????
---
ITH Hero bets $75, BB folds, UTG XR to xxx??? [He min raises, vloggers math doesnt add up here. I also don't know the rules on min raising lol is it just 2x your bet?]
Hero calls
TURN: POT: ~$300
UTG bets 100. Hero now with diamond draw, calls.
I'm struggling to see what 99 is ahead of here.
RIVER: POT: ~$500
UTG bets $200, Hero calls.
THOUGHTS:
PRE: We can used a merged range against a loose player who never folds to 3!s. 99 is definitely in that range, probably 88 as well. Since V is UTG (HJ really, we're 5-handed) calling wouldn't be too bad either. In position is fine to 3! for value.
FLOP: Can we possibly check here? Maybe with the 9d we should be betting, but we'll be facing a raise often with many good draws with his wide continuing range, I'd like to check with our SDV for pot control. Personally I'd be inclined to check up to AA, although premiums would be in better shape vs a V XR with two overs and a fd as compared to 99.
A call on the flop sets us up for later streets of calling as well, so there's a threat of future investment.
Turn + River, I don't care lol, I think the decision was made on the flop! :bath:
Your thoughts?
