pocket 99s

Hi Munkey7,

I would just barrel the turn also, he's going to have alot of hands he will call turn with that he won't bet like 88 with a diamond, Qx...Even aggressive payers are still gonna want to get to showdown on scary cards like these. I would just bet large on the turn and expect him to call with a bunch of hands, he may even decide to jam some hands that he doesnt feel he can call with. I'm calling if he shoves but the reason we're betting is because he will have alot of top pair hands and pair+draw hands that he'll call turn with but wont bet himself and wont pay off on the river.

So yeah...barrel the turn for value.

As played i don't really like your check jam unless you expect him to either be strong like 2 pair alot of the time. your basically just getting called by flushes and straights and getting most other hands to fold. I would prefer a check/call turn and lead brick rivers. (if he's bet Qx on the turn he'll usually be going for a river check back, by calling turn and leading river we dont give him the option to check back and will usually get called out of spite anyway)
