TP, mediocre kicker

[private joker]

This looks standard, but I'm not sure it should be. No reads on Villain.

Standard.

i just wanted to comment on this thread because everbody else has a special thing with their name too so i thought i'd chime in.

[soweak.]

i believe on the flop the UTG player can expect a solid player to be value betting a lot of pairs here. I think your play is fine, especially since you're a random hand its hard for him to raise anything worse than top two. I expect to have the best hand here and pray the board doesn't pair the turn or river.

Damn I was going to continue CDC's idea. Oh well.

Seems standard, how else can you play it?

I like your hand here the only hand I worry he has that beats us is KJ.

Other options below

Call raise, Check/Call, Bet/Call? (He probably won't raise you on the river unless you're beat, but you're still gonna want to call)
Call raise, Check/Call, Check/Call, (this seems particularly terrible)
Call raise, Check/Fold turn UI? (That's some weak-tight goodness there)

I just don't like any option other than how you played it.


As a side note what happens if he caps? Check fold the turn? or Bet/fold?
