TT in MP1

[gopnik]

I am very interested in what you guys think about my flop C/R.
I checked to see how the action would develop and try to figure out if anybody had a higher pair. After COs bet I raised to knock MP3 out if he had overcards. Plus, there was a chance that CO had overcards as well. What about the rest of the hand?
Your opinions are greatly appreciated.

hi
i think you should bet the river.
i am torn about the flop c/r.
i think it worked out really well for you in this instance, but the absolute last thing you can afford to do on this perfect flop (short of flopping a set) is give a free potential overcard to anyone and there are a lot of them.

i'd probably bet out on the flop and 3-bet a raise from CO and proceed from there.

I like everything about this hand except the river play. I'd bet and expect to see AK call me down often enough to make this profitable.

I think the C/R is good in this spot since two other players have shown aggression pre-flop, so it's unlikely to get checked around.

Yes, everything looks fine here (nice C/R) but the river. Gotta bet that river.

Thank you for your input guys.
CO had JJ and took it down. The reason why I checked the river is because I was fairly sure that CO had a bigger PP after calling my turn bet.

I really like the check-raise, however, if MP3 has overcards and plans to call them down, the pot is laying him slightly better than 7.15:1 to call down. Still, it's a terrific play because he's less likely to cold call with overcards he may think are no good given the check raise that was executed.

I think you missed a bet on the river. I don't think he has you beat when the 7 comes. You bet and if you get raised you have to make a crying call.
