Hey,
Q1: Is my play standard enough?
Q2: My plan was raise/fold. Is this plan ok? As I see it if a raise we are facing at minimum FD

Both villains totally unknown, suggesting either blind_aggression/fishy_calls/nitty_ play :eek: Extremes anyways. Given stack sizes are 100b likelihood they are nitty is the largest.

yeah my line would be similar. Too many bad turns for us
if there wasn't a fd or sd around I might just xc if the v is aggro

Would check raise a bit smaller you made it 14 to call for the CO in a 21.4 pot which is a large check raise a smaller check raise like 16 which makes it 10 to call for the CO in a 17.4 pot is still a decent check raise but more likely to get a call even from e.g. top pair good kicker. Oh well the difference is actually not that big pot % wise lol

Thx for the comments.

How about: 'Q2: My plan was raise/fold. '
I think the plan is ok, but I would like to have a verification just to make sure nittines has not brain washed me. Obviously it's a lot player dependent, but as a basic plan it should be default line against 2 players? Doing range analysis is no good, because I will give them tight range :D

No, the plan check/fold will not work here because: 1st, if CO and UTG has set or straight, they will not re raise you in this situation, instead they will call and give up their lead to you so that you can put more chips in; 2nd, we can't fold here because we have blocker to set 99 and set 88; so only 6 combos of J10s and 4 combos of QQ that we have to worry about; lastly, we take the lead on this flop, there is no turning back, bet bet bet.

If you think hes TAG like then yes a raise fold plan is ok in my book here. You have bottom two if you had Q9 or Q8 I would not fold, but 98 is prob your worst hand you arrive here with so bet folding is not really bad it is just balanced.
