Who has the range advantage on 9 9 5?
Clear Button edge: the Big Blind arrives with more air, and the Button has more overcard hands.
BTN vs BB single-raised pot: the button opens, the big blind calls.
dry / rainbow / paired
Share of each range that is sets, two pair, overpairs, straights or better, and combo draws. This is who wins the big pots.
The pair on board favors the Button's range. Small bets work well because so few hands can continue. Try unpairing the board and see who the trips were protecting.
A paired middle board where the big blind holds a slightly bigger share of nines and the button holds all the overpairs. Raw equity says raiser; the trips lean a little toward the caller, so the biggest pots are closer than the headline edge.
