I'd limp with TT in early position level 2. And then call a raise if it's not too big.

I'd fold this. It's unlikely he's raising with 99-, so you're looking at two overcards as your best case. He didn't reraise a lot though, so he could be wanting a call. You're getting 2-1 but it's too much of your stack, and I don't think you're ahead but if you are it's only by a little.

[Xenod]

I agree with splashpot. UTG is already in the hand, you've got plenty of chips for this blind level, why not limp and play your TT for set value, or possibly an overpair.


As for how the hand played out, I think folding was the right decision, in the best case scenario, Button needs two overs to re-raise.
