PokerStars – $0.10 NL (6 max) – Holdem – 5 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4: http://www.pokertracker.com

BTN: 100 BB (VPIP: 21.43, PFR: 15.65, 3Bet Preflop: 4.64, Hands: 151,159)
Hero (SB): 99.5 BB
BB: 189.5 BB (VPIP: 27.35, PFR: 21.08, 3Bet Preflop: 9.15, Hands: 26,015)
UTG: 101.5 BB (VPIP: 33.45, PFR: 20.04, 3Bet Preflop: 4.07, Hands: 29,895)
CO: 119.3 BB (VPIP: 21.46, PFR: 17.52, 3Bet Preflop: 8.36, Hands: 177,249)

Hero posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has Ks 9s
UTG raises to 3 BB, fold, BTN calls 3 BB, Hero calls 2.5 BB, fold

Flop : (10 BB, 3 players) 9c Js Qs
Hero bets 6.4 BB, UTG calls 6.4 BB, BTN raises to 38 BB, Hero calls 31.6 BB, UTG calls 31.6 BB

Turn : (124 BB, 3 players) 5d
Hero checks, UTG checks, BTN bets 59 BB and is all-in, Hero calls 58.5 BB and is all-in, UTG calls 59 BB

River : (300.5 BB, 3 players) 2c

UTG shows As 6s (High Card, Ace)

Main Pot [299.5 BB]: (Pre 38%, Flop 26%, Turn 14%)
Side Pot [1 BB]: (Pre 53%, Flop 31%, Turn 17%)

BTN shows 8c Tc (Straight, Queen High)

Main Pot [299.5 BB]: (Pre 34%, Flop 59%, Turn 79%)
Side Pot [1 BB]: (Pre 46%, Flop 69%, Turn 83%)

Hero shows Ks 9s (One Pair, Nines)

Main Pot [299.5 BB]: (Pre 28%, Flop 15%, Turn 7%)

BTN wins 287 BB

Question 1: Is this hand worth calling OOP Preflop?
My thoughts: UTG has been playing very badly and I think my hand is connected and strong enough to enter a Multiway Pot.

Question 2: Is leading out on the flop into two players on a wet board like this ever correct?
My thoughts: My hand blocks some of the draws and I think my opponents have similar hands to mine
(78,89,9T,JT etc.) I figured these draws would call one or two streets and if nothing completes will fold on later streets.

Question 3: Do I call, fold or shove on the flop vs this raise from Button?
My thoughts: I need 34% equity to call and my hand has outs vs made hands like straights and two pairs, plus there is implied odds as UTG will call if I call?

Question 4: Can I ever fold on the turn here?
My thoughts: I need 24% equity to call, I am still ahead of made hands like 2 pairs, sets, and straights. Villain could also be on a flush draw as well with A8-A2s which I beat.

I have moved your hand to our hand discussion forum. There fits it better.

I think K9s is a decent hand to defend with. It has flush and straght possibilities.
As played I would check to the raiser with the straight and flush draw with the plan to check/raise and even if both players checking to you it's not a problem to get a free card. With leading you need to go for it I think if you face a raise with 9 outs for a flush and 3 extra outs for a straight. Off course you need to hit to win, but that's to bad.

Turn you have still 11 outs of the 46 unknown cards to win the hand, because the BTN isn't raising the flop and shoves the turn with a hand you beat. That means you have around 24% equity to win the hand if the 9 doesn't help you. You need to call 59bb to win a total of 242 if the UTG is folding. Than you need 24,4% equity, but I expect he could call sometimes as well. If he would call the pot is 299,5bb and than you need only 19,7% and is calling fine. I expect that could happen a decent amount of the time with in mind he needs only 19,7% equity to make a +EV call as well and is calling not to bad I think with in mind you have sometimes 2 extra outs with the 9.

Checking flop is good. T is a decent card but it's not what I would consider to be a great card due to AK filling its draw and giving you a 2nd best hand that can be blocked and flush dominated.

Ouch, yeah its a hard a hand to watch in my replayer. I think there was something outside of this hand going on the session. Looking over the whole session I was "running bad" in the first 1/2 hour or so, this lead to me make some desperate plays like this.
