99 facing Trigg's 3bet.

[SuuPRlim]

this is the first hand these guys have played, anything adam thinks about Trigg and vica versa is all purely speculative at this point, the table is breaking so no need to win the table unless you want to. You can still open whatever you want, just because we've folded 99 here doesn't mean we can't open 9T next hand.

I think there being no dynamic means we have an opportunity to play a strong enough hand and build a dynamic, rather than using no dynamic as an excuse to fold and avoid building one. We are here to play poker afterall.

This is very true, but then if you wanted to use no dynamic as an excuse to fold, then you could, and it would be fine imo.

FWIW I'd never fold pre-flop here, I'd call almost 100%. I'm just reputing the claims that folding is absurdly bad, which I disagree with.

but what shocked me in this tournament was peoples reticence to play post flop. And seeing some of the stuff ITM i realised why

it would appear 3 years of rejamming 20bbs has left people unable to play post

I totally agree with you. I'm sure it was impacted by a larger number of satty entries, but i was really surprised by the level of play in a £1k. I def ran good with tables draws, but even so............

An optimal play is an optimal play for a reason. 18-28bb stack is a 3bet jamming stack. Personally wouldn't want to 3bet fold or peel
with that stack. The hero in this case has around 66 bbs from recollection from reading this post a few days ago so we can peel/see flop oop.

And I along with the vast majority of posters will not be folding 99 here.
Also pretty certain that only a small percentage of posters here have a fear of flopping yourself included.

And re-jamming 20bbs is a sweetspot with regards to fold equity a subject Elky touches upon in Kill Everyone don't tell the fish though please.
