Re: TT UTG, NL100, 6 max
 

Aye, limpreraising with TT is... meh. The best possible result is that you win the pot preflop. In that case, you've won... oh, $16 bucks or so. And you risked $30 to do it.
Worst case, you get re-reraised, and you're screwed.
second worst case, you get called. Are there any flops without a T that you're really comfortable with OOP?

Save this fancy play for QQ+, use TT and below to stack him when you hit your set.

Thanks for your replies.
Yes i think you are probably right guys, that this play was too fancy- high risk, not enough award.

What made me think that it might have been a good play at the time was that button and BB was very aggro preflop, meaning my TT would be better than a bunch of their raising hands.

Here was the possible scenarios when i raised to 29:

-Hopefully everybody will fold, this gives me a nice pot.
-All fold except BB, who calls or raises. This is also ok
since i think his range is quite big.
-Button calls. This is not good.
- Co or MP calls. This is very bad, and i am likely behind.
-I get more than one caller. This is also very bad.

The good thing about my big reraise is thoose of my opponents that might be thinking would put me on a strong hand, probably AA or KK. So MP or CO will mostly get out of the way, and i also think button would need a decent hand to call me here, leaving BB as the person who would most likely give me action.

Obviously if the action preflop had been a bunch of limpers, i would have to play carefully.
