Online, they'll get busted non-stop. 99 is a favorite over Q-10, PERIOD. It's called trapping.

99 is a very very small favorite over Q-10 suited. If you know someone is a horrible player then you push big edges against them, you don't gamble with small ones.
The original poster lost his cool and pushed with 99 not because he thought it was a monster hand, but because he was sick of seeing the donkey raise with crap and make people fold...so he thought he'd push him off the hand.
Alot of people seem to forget you can only make good players fold.
