TT hand

[Tosh]

I didn't know it at the time but UTG is 2+2er Barry. MP2 is a bit loose. Was I too passive during this hand?

Hey Tosh. I love the flop CR, but I would lead the turn. When you check and he bets, you've gained no information about his holding. If you're raised on the turn I think you can check fold the river unimproved, but since you check called the turn I think this river is really tough to play. I would still call a river bet here though.

[Tosh]

Tend to agree, I wasn't sure what to make of Barry's cold call I guess.

[joker122]

I really need to stop reading hands so fast...I completely ignored UTG's presence in the hand. His flop cold call sure looks like a flush draw, or maybe ten. But until he shows me I'm beat I'm remaining the aggressor here.

Hey Tosh, I agree with joker on this one. UTG's cold-call means he's either on a draw, or is slowplaying a made hand, but considering the board I would tend to side with a draw so betting on the turn is probably correct.

[Barry]

You have ignored the possibility that I hit the call button, just as you were raising......

I love it. Now there is an even higher level of thought required. Hmmmm, I wonder if he is on a draw, slow playing a monster, or was that just a misclick??

[Barry]

It was a misclick, I had KQo, no clubs, so I flopped a gutshot w/ 2 overcards. Not good enough to call 2 cold.

[Tosh]

You don't raise that 8 handed?

[Barry]

I thought that we had a full 10 handed table. Sometimes I raise UTG with it, sometimes I don't. The 5/10 is usually loose and it was one of my 1st hands, so I decided to limp that time.
