Trying to get the NL feel back in the blood
So I hadn't played one cash hand of NL in over a week and a half (other than Jenna and I drinking, laughing and watching TV together on the couch). So I decided to play on 2-table NL cash games on Tue. and Wed. and 2.5k (give or take)- Bad.
I need my NL t33h back. My p0keryt33h is less t33h3y!!!
So, I was playing a bunch of different NL games from $5 to $100 depending on the time of day. I progressed through the day into the early morning hours- my peak. This popped up in my second orbit. Little reads, but UTG was cooping a lot of small pots:
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)
BB ($74.25)
UTG ($125.50)
UTG+1 ($160.50)
MP1 ($197.75)
MP2 ($57.75)
MP3 ($42.50)
Hero ($137.71)
Button ($202.53)
SB ($101.07)
Preflop: Hero is CO with 2  , 2  . SB posts a blind of $0.5.
UTG calls $1, 1 fold, MP1 calls $1, 1 fold, MP3 calls $1, Hero calls $1, 1 fold, SB (poster) completes, BB checks.
Flop: ($6) 9  , 9  , 9 (6 players)
SB checks, BB checks, UTG bets $20, Folds to me on the button. Hero.....
How do you guys play a situation like this? I was on my laptop with the Jenster looking over my shoulder and didn't like how I played this out. I'll let you guys know what happened in a day or two. I'll also admit that I was paying more attention to the video picture box than the poker games.

Obvious answer.. you had Jenster looking over your shoulder and you were paying more attention to the video and the poker...???????
Hope this helps...
PS .. No reads you stand a chance of big money coin flipping against an ace or higher pp. Pot is $4 - the rake could hit $5. A CR is out ...you could get pc..no chance of improvement if he has highr pp. Long handed- good odds that he has anothe pc.
Fold - then spend more time with Jen....

your hand sucks, there is a big bet that could mean anything, you have no read, even if you are winning your opponent has 6 outs
instamuck for me, its a ring game, just look for a better spot.

I agree, fold this. Your opponent probably has two paint and if it either hits, you're dead.

I'd prolly fold to, but I'm not sure its so simple. I mean betting $20 into a $6 is hella suspicous. I still think you can wait for a better spot to pick this guy off.

I don't see why this is a question.
I don't think you win this 50% of the time, so I would fold unless I was drunk, then I would push and be mad at myself when he shows 88.

Yes I'm suspicious he's overbetting his quads!
I'm 80% certain he's got at least a small pocket pair... easy fold, just like most times you see a flop with 22.
