Default HUSNG: Full house on a gay board

This is the second hand, I have no reads. But, FWIW most of the people I meet at this level are truly retarded.

he limps : prob not QQ

he calls flop : prob a spade or a pair or both, he's not retarded enough to continue with 9T right?

why is he raising the turn tho? he bets small, and then re-raises. seems like a standard line for a retard with an 8. They love to min bet with strong hands. and you just got counterfeit too. doesn't look good.

On the flop, he could easily have T9, yes. On the turn - no, villains won't have T9 here. I agree it smells an awful lot like an 8. I think I should have just called his gay bet.

I don't understand the c/r on the turn at all with no reads.

As played I'd probably call river since most people at this level are so bad, but with his bet size it does reek of an 8.

I just bet the turn. You have top pair still, but no kicker. You can call turn and then bet/fold river or just fold turn.
