20-40 PP
Tex is BB.
Folds around to button, (this is the first hand, first orbit) who raises.
I'm holding 99.(i hate having to play the first hand)
SB folds, And I three bet.
I'm figuring he's raising with A-anything here, so I have some equity if he has a hand like A4s A8o A9o, blah blah blah.
Button Caps.
Oops. Okay, still, I probably got a coin flip, but now unless he thinks I'm re-stealing after he tried to steal, he probably has a hand range from 7-7 through A-A, and all the hands inbetween.
Now, I'm in for 2 BB's PF in my first hand OOP with a medium pair. Gotta love it.
Flop
5 7 8 Rainbow....
My line on the flop?
Check call? Lead, ever? Check fold?
How do I avoid check call mode in this hand if I have an overpair here?
I actually bet here, and the button just called.
I have an overpair and a belly buster.
Turn comes an offsuit three, and I checked.
Button checked behind.
River was a board pairing 3, and I bet, and the button raises.
Where did I go wrong and how do I avoid this situation in the future? I cant see how this is a check fold on the flop,so it's either a check raise, a bet, or a check call (which i hate doing).
