Villain is a reg, and I thought he would have a worse set or 2pair more often than a T. When the 9 came river I thought T9 was also out of question so I called. Not sure if correct though.

I would take a note that this villain will float with gutshots.

he had 8 outs, it was more like an open ended straight draw

his river valuebet range is almost certainly going to be more polarized than this. set usually raises before the river, 2pair probably doesn't bet river.

when he bets river you can expect either Tx or some 1-pair hand he turned into a bluff (since there's not really any total airballs he's likely to have), if he's a reg he's probably not peeling two streets multiway with AJ/KJ, so that leaves KQ/AQ, which you block the shit out of (and which most regs will squeeze a lot pre given the action).

what you're left with is a bunch of KT, QT, JT, AT (and T9, although most likely he raises that earlier) that got there. he might be going for thin value with QJ once you check, but it's not super likely and there's still more combos of Tx hands.

Thanks, this helps a lot.

Hey cloud! I think playing micro stakes on stars is a real waste of money, you are MUCH better off finding a 60%+ rb site and play there to increase your bankroll. I think the difference is like 20-40bis a month depending on how much you play, I'm lazy to do the math but it's easy to find googling. As for the hands they all seem like you need to find a fold button soon, people just arent bluffing enough.

Hey, thanks for the advice I
I have enough bankroll to play NL50 atm, I just play NL10 at the moment to practice cash game. I definitely need to use more the fold button at the river though, sometimes it's hard to do when you don't have a clear idea of opponent's range
