TT in BB

Pretty loose table, no specific reads on anyone.

Party Poker 0.50/1 Hold'em (10 handed)

Preflop: Hero is BB with T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
UTG folds, UTG+1 raises, UTG+2 folds, MP1 folds, MP2 folds, MP3 calls, CO folds, Button calls, SB calls, Hero 3-bets, UTG+1 caps, MP3 calls, Button calls, SB calls, Hero calls.

Lots of people, at least someone will win a nice pot.

Flop: (20 SB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (5 players)
SB checks, Hero bets, UTG+1 calls, MP3 calls, Button folds, SB calls.

Hmm... no raise, UTG+1 probably has AK, AQ... or a low pocket pair like TT or 99.

Turn: (12 BB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (4 players)
SB checks, Hero bets, UTG+1 calls, MP3 raises, SB folds, Hero calls, UTG+1 calls.

Oops... 16 bb in the pot after the raise. I figure I'm still ahead of UTG+1 and that MP3 has a 3 which gives me four outs.

River: (18 BB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3 players)
Hero checks, UTG+1 checks, MP3 bets, Hero calls, UTG+1 calls.

Final Pot: 21 BB

Check-call or check-fold the river? Any other mistakes?

Why would you put MP3 on a 3? He cold called 2 bets preflop. If he's CC'ing 2 bets with A3,33,66 after an UTG+1 raise I hope you wrote his username down.

Folding that river is a crime against humanity. Don't you think you'll be shown 77, 88, 99, AK often enough to make this call? You only have to be correct 6% of the time.

I smooth call an early position raiser when in the BB with T-T. Then I check raise this flop. You can't fold on the river because the pot is too big.

MP3 shows A3 and wins the pot.

I don't like the pre flop 3 bet. you are out of posistion against an EP raiser and you only have TT.

I would have CR the flop if I only called the flop.

You tied yourself to the pot, you can not fold this river.
