Just getting an 8 game table started so no reads here in this blind battle.
After first draw I elect to keep the 9.
After the second draw I elect to call and then freeze with my 23479
After the third draw I check it back.
What were the alternative ways I could have played this hand, have I missed value. Should I have ditched the nine and drawn for the 7 after the first draw?
One viable alternative way would be for me to raise after the second draw, if he then calls and takes one then I pat, if he three bets me I can call and break the 97 to draw for the nuts. Is this preferable to the way I chose to play it vs an unknown in an 8 game hand?
