A JTs hand where all I do is call

[Nick C]

I had hardly any hands on UTG when this hand took place, and I still only have 11. SB is LA-P (69/11/1.2).

Preflop: Hero is BB with J/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, T/images/graemlins/diamond.gif.
UTG calls, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, MP3 calls, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, SB completes, Hero checks.

Flop: (4 SB) K/images/graemlins/spade.gif, 9/images/graemlins/club.gif, T/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, MP3 folds, SB calls, Hero calls.

<font color="#0000FF">This call may be too loose. I don't know. I didn't feel like folding at the time, though.

In retrospect, I think I should have just led the flop, and I'm not sure why I didn't.</font>

Turn: (3.50 BB) Q/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">SB raises</font>, Hero calls, UTG calls.

<font color="#0000FF">Well, apparently SB has a jack too. I think I'd rather keep UTG in, if I can.

But I'm not sure. All I have is a probable chop, and I don't really know what UTG has. Should I raise here?</font>

River: (9.50 BB) 7/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets</font>, Hero calls, UTG folds.

<font color="#0000FF">And I don't see much point in raising here.</font>

Final Pot: 11.50 BB

Thoughts?

[Chris Daddy Cool]

i'd play it the same. exept that i'd probably lead the turn.

[Willluck]

Maybe lead out the flop, but i guess a call isn't terrible. but yeah looks good from then on.

[bakku]

I'd bet out on the turn, I think UTG is going to be checking behind way too often.

[Yads]

Lead the flop.
