not realy sure how you can do a string bet online ??, do you mean you typed in you'd call, then raised ??

or are you referring to a face to face game ??, as string betting is illegal

How do you mean you made a string bet ???

"In a live game, someone does a string bet if they act like they are going to call but then make a raise. For example, it is standard etiquette that putting the requisite chips for a call into the pot just means a call. If one wants to raise, he or she needs to announce raise before placing chips into the pot. They cannot say 'I call your bet...and raise you 'x.' They must say "I raise." String bets confuse players as to whether the player is calling or raising, so they are not allowed."

This isnt poseble here as you can only call , rase or fold there is no "announceing" what you are going to do ???????????

p.s This thread is called "suited connectors" yet the hand you talk about is 99 now that confused me lol
