    I would bet out on flop strong like 80p and snap all in.

    As played nh.

    This is my very first hand. Pre is fine I think but when he called I thought either suited conectors or a small PP set mining or just bad play. My massive raise is either a bluff or AA/KK

    On the flop I figure I want to keep the pot small for now. If he has a 9 he bets, if he has a queen then I'm beat anyway. He checks back so I bet the 9 on the turn but am ready to fold to a raise since this is what she should do with a queen or a nine. When he flats I don't know why but I just felt like he didn't have the full house.

    Is this good thinking or does a player show up with a house most of the time and I was lucky to come up against an idiot? Obviously this guy is an idiot because he doesn't realise that the second 9 counterfits his hand leaving him with 2-high!

    But if I play like this against good cash players at high levels will I go broke more often than not?

    love the river call playing the board!!!
    You should really c - bet here rather than giving the player a chance to represent, higher levels you will be getting bet back on with pocket twos or raised throughout on this kind of board.
    You got max value so well done i just can't understand his call in the end

    vaugha1971 says it pre,

    bet flop you will get calls from worse as you would with AK for value/cbet bluff, then get it in on turn he would snap you with a king and pocket twos lol

    bet flop for value 
    b/c turn for value
    b/c river / or just shove if pot size and stack sizes are ok

    you wont go broke, you'll just lose a lot of value - it's not the most logical way of thinking about it, checking the flop and then betting the turn more time than not means you have a hand, betting the flop keeps all your bluffs which gives you more chance of getting paid

    should be betting flop, if he got a 9 at this level probably getting all his mone

    not quite sure you bet the turn you should only be getting called by a hand that beats you.

    And after the call on river ya gota be check folding the river at a higher level. But this is NL4 after all
