- Anthony Martino I've been playing in the new PokerNations online room, plenty of seats into championship events, but no wins yet in the large fields. Also started playing a local home game plus working a ton, my commute to work eats up 8 hours/week unfortunately

Anthony Martino: No problem man, glad things are going well. I started a new job this week, but the 40+ hour commute (with traffic) really blows when you're working 8-5 :(

Mark L → Anthony Martino: Sorry I haven't been around much working 70 hour weeks isn't conducive to playing optimal poker. This will begin to slow down around mid December for me with the exception of plowing contracts then I'll be able to pop in more often.

Just curious bro, what if his intent was to look super weak with that bet and hoping someone would commit their stack giving him the best possible chance at a double up?

What's the worse that could happin for him here?

Either he is crushed by AA, KK or AK, (unlikely given the preflop action) or he takes the pot down uncontested, are we perhaps looking into this play a bit to much here?

I'm of the opinion that his bet was week hoping to get someone to stick around with A9 and give him a few more chips when villan feels he might have the best hand....

Also I don't like the notion of fold equity here, we only really force someone who is bluffing to fold here.

I'm prone to fits of super aggression, knowing that about myself I'm not sure I'm calling much less thinking that I might be a head here putting my opponent all in...
