Hmm TT Hand
 

I've been playing a lot at the B&M recently where hands really aren't very interesting. I played a quick sesh last nite and this one came up. The table was running at 39/4 for my 1st 15 hands. UTG and BB were 40/0 after 12 hands. I saw BB limp with KQo after some limpers a few hands earlier fwiw. All streets are undoubtedly questionable/piss poor. [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

How did I do? All comments/questions welcomed.

Side Note: I got a coulple of 40's (Mickey's) on hand so I'll be down to play some HU .02/.04 on Stars if anyone wants to get a cheap poker lesson. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

I'd say 3-bet PF and bet the flop. I'd grudingly fold the river.

I'll watch if any dares challenges Shill to a HU match. I'm too scared ever since he took me on a ride.

Bet the flop. Play changes from there.

Why re-raise PF? To isolate? Considering the fact that over 15 hands he's never PFR'ed, and considering he's doing so now UTG, I think I'd rather take TT against a field than a lone group1-2 hand.

But I could be a blockhead. I'm tired.

Re: Hmm TT Hand
 

There are basically 3 reasons why I didn't bet the flop

1) What hand can I beat on this board?
2) What hand that I beat will fold?
3) What if he flopped a doozy and is slowplaying?

Re: Hmm TT Hand
 

I'm confused. Why not 3-bet preflop?

Why not bet the flop? You can always call a raise and then fold to a bet if the turn doesn't help?

Re: Hmm TT Hand
 

You don't think he would fold black jacks? Having not bet the flop I would fold on the river. I just 3 bet these preflop as why not get it heads up. 15 hands is nothing you may as well try.

ps: rematch whenever you want it. I beat some losers on pokerstars when I was bored to rebuild my 0.02/0.04 heads up bankroll [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Hmm TT Hand
 

Its only 15 hands so we can't be sure of that yet.

I would easily let go of this hand on the turn/river without any improvement.
