NL 1/2
Hero is in a volatile game of No Fold-em Hold-em. It's pretty aggressive but not this hand pre, and Hero has been pretty card dead. In for 200, at 215. Hero's one of the tightest players at the table. Hero has A9 in the SB. There are five limpers to Hero who completes. BB checks.
POT $14
Flop 972
Hero donk bets for 10. Bad play?
BB calls. He's a Serb with a 70 VPIP. Very friendly fellow. He may have 80. UTG is an OMC with about 150 and he calls the 10. I assume the Serb is on diamonds. The OMC may have 10s for all I know. He wouldn't raise pre with them.
POT $44
Turn 9
Hero leads out for $35 with trips excellent kicker, but both call. What does the OMC have? Does anyone not bet here?
POT $149
River K
Hero??????????

At least one of them has to have a flush, I reckon. So check/fold.

I personally wouldn't have lead the flop just because opponents are so sticky and I don't want to be stuck playing mw OOP the whole hand where we'll almost certainly see an over card.

As played I like the turn bet and size.

Check-folding the river seems excessive. I'm not sure how wide OMC is limping UTG, but being liberal we can say 77 is in it, so I'd expect him to have three combos of 77, then 18 total combos of TT-QQ, which I would expect him to limp UTG. Betting out it seems rather difficult to get called by anything we beat...seems like a pretty standard x-c spot

Yeah, the thing was I really questioned whether an OMC would draw to a flush on a paired board and not bet a set on his own before turn.

Interesting river situation. First of al if H checks, is x-f better than a x-c? Of course if everyone checks just turn the cards over, best hand wins. I wouldn’t expect a made flush to check behind. I wouldn’t expect too many bluffs here either. Three players, good hands worth a call are definitely possible. Depends on what pot odds H is getting but I think a x-f is probably a better play than x-c.

What about ionutd’s line, b-f? I agree that not many worse hands that will call but there are some. A small flush might just overcall. So I vote for b-f.

Agree with sixseven on the flop lead. At this described table we are building a pot OOP and will definitely get multiple callers in no fold em hold em. The turn card is often a diamond, straight card, or overcard putting is in a spot OOP. AP I also like turn bet and sizing. River is a check / eval.
If BB bets and OMC folds I'm calling the $35, he is wider than flushes and lol pot odds.
If OMC flats bet from BB it's super close but I probably still call as OMC can play 9x, AA this way.
If OMC bets / or raises more than $50 it's a fold, if he somehow had T9-Q9 oh well, most of his range has us beat.
