$WARDEN

7♦︎ 4♦︎ on the button. About 41% against a random hand. This is not good enough to open on merit. I raise to 55 anyway; the blind gives up often enough.

▸ raises to 55

$NIT

8♦︎ 9♣︎ on the big blind. About 50% against a random hand. The price is right: 35 more into 40. I call.

▸ calls 35

I have only the board's pair on Q♦︎ Q♣︎ J♦︎. Nothing to gain by betting here. I check.

Q♦︎Q♣︎J♦︎9♠︎pot 110
$NIT

I have a pair of nines and the board's pair on Q♦︎ Q♣︎ J♦︎ 9♠︎. A small bet of 45. I am ahead often enough, and it denies a free card.

▸ bets 45

$WARDEN

I have only the board's pair on Q♦︎ Q♣︎ J♦︎ 9♠︎. $NIT bet 45 and I do not beat enough of what bets that size. Fold.
