I didn't have a read on the UTG player. Should I have been more aggressive? Is anyone afraid of set over set?

Cap the turn, raise the river if he leads, and call a 3-bet. And hope he's overplaying aces.

UTG didn't limp RR, UTG+1 did. It looks like 33. TT raises preflop...I cap the turn and just call a river bet.

So does I.

Edit: yeah... you're never up against the limp-reraiser. He folds for two on the flop. Since really the only thing you could be behind is a passively (preflop) played TT, I have to say I'd raise the turn and also raise the river and just call a three-bet. Like someone said before, it looks like 33 or possibly a two-pair (like QT or something). If he has TT, make a note and remember that the next time he's this aggressive after limping preflop.

Thanks guys, you hit the nail on the head. He had 33. I thought at the time I left some bets on the table, and you also thought the same. Thanks.

Cap the turn. With this river card, if he leads again, just call.

Any comments on calling preflop when it comes back 3-bet. 5:1 good enough here to call with MP3 still to act after you possibly capping?

I was wondering the same thing.

5:1 is ok here. Most of the value of low pocket pairs is hidden in implied odds for when you hit your set. This is an easy fold on the flop if you miss, but you should more than make up for the small losses when you hit.

Yeah, I was really iffy on the preflop call too. But I figured that the massive implied odds would be enough to call two cold.

i would cap this turn, but if he leads into you on the river you might just call.

if he has respectable limpreraising standards, you'll see AA or KK more than you'll see QQ here.
