Default Re: TT

I tend to not 3-bet TT in this spot preflop, particularly against a tightish raiser.

Against a tight raiser I also don't see what this flop checkraise accomplishes, unless you're planning on seeing if he 3-bets or not and then folding the turn unimproved.

If you're beating anything he has it's AKs or maybe 99-88-77, and you're better off calling to encourage further bluffing if you're ahead and minimizing the bets you lose when you're behind, which is a lot of the time.

Yes, the pot is multiway, but anyone calling is getting more than 8:1, so raising doesn't really protect your hand.

Having raised the flop, I like the turn bet. I'm not sure what the river bet accomplishes--what do you think he has, and what is he going to do with it?

Note that I might be biased because I know the results.
