Default TT - 3 bet preflop?

Party 3/6 10 Handed

Hero is UTG+3 with T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
UTG folds, UTG+2 raises, Hero 3 bets, CO (poster) calls.
Rest fold.


Flop: J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
UTG+2 checks, Hero bets, CO calls, UTG+2 calls.


Turn: T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
UTG+2 checks, Hero bets, both call.


River: 5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
UTG+2 checks, Hero bets, CO folds, UTG+2 calls

Results:
UTG+2 shows KK for 2 pair. Hero shows the nuts.


Chatbox:
UTG+2: RERAISED WITH POCKET TENS!! WHAT A LUCKY FOOL.
Hero: sorry, I can't see your cards.
UTG+2: SO WHAT?? IT'S STILL A STUPID PLAY.
Hero: I disagree

I'm right, right?

The only thing you did wrong is responding to his inane chat. He didn't cap preflop with KK in a 3-way pot. I think we know who's making mistakes here.

For the price of one bet he adds significant deception making his hand seem much weaker. Can gain him a lot of bets on later streets. However, i do agree that his play on later streets is garbage.

Heads-up I agree. Three ways don't get fancy for 1 BB. Plus he's out of position which gives him extra incentive to take control.

thats an excellent point about position. But if pocket kings was last to act in a 3-way pot then cap doesn't seem worth it. 4 people is where i think the capping might be a good idea

Good 3-bet. With TT here, you can't just call as you want this heads up. If UTG+2 is a tight raiser and will only raise AA/KK/QQ/JJ/AK?AQ/AJ here, then consider folding. But I've never respected anyone on Party 3/6 that much.

If you never talked poker strategy at the table, you might be doing just fine.

Yes. Attempting to cut down the field there is a good play. Its either raise or fold.

People who berate your play online usually dont know what they are talking about.

My favorite went something like this:
I have ATs in the BB, UTG raises, 3 people cold call and I call aswell.

Flop is 3c 7h Ts

UTG bets everyone calls.

Turn is Td

UTG bets, everyone before me calls I raise, UTG calls, the rest fold.

River is blank, checked to me I bet and UTG calls.

He has QQ and MHIG.

"BAH I HATE THIS. YOU FING CALLING STATION FISH FCK, GO LEARN HOW TO PLAY".
