Playing a 33 is standard.

Everything looks great except the push at the end because your only going to get called by the hand that beats you. Although your move prevents anybody from seeing your hand.

Either way works, but I still like calling.

Honestly, no one has really shown post flop strength and that board is scary. I think I just call the river and hope for an overcall from BB. UTG isn't calling you without a T in which case you chop, and a push is a lot of chips on a scary board, and a minraise just screams "I want a call".

Edit: realize there are only so many tens in the deck, and you can see two of them. If UTG does have one it makes it really unlikely BB will, but he may call getting great odds. If you raise he will almost certainly fold.

as donkish as it seems i may minraise at the end. a KT is almost never going to be in someone's hand here, so I want to get value from all the two pair type hands out there. and, whereas they are running from the push, they might make a crying call for a minraise.

or you could also raise to something like 300 (essentially a minraise, but slightly less fishy).

What, you put UTG on exactly KT? What other hand beats Hero?

i think he's saying no worse hand will call, so just go for the overcall.

Nothing else, but why take the risk if you have no more chips to gain because I severly doubt somebody is calling down with top pair here.

I doubt the players would get much information from a showdown, like I said either way works but I prefer calling.

Edit: good job schwza beating me to it
