TT EP ... completely lost.
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t800 (8 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx
BB (t28529) UTG (t48564) UTG+1 (t24157) Hero (t18950) MP2 (t25870) CO (t30737) Button (t81068) SB (t69703) Preflop: Hero is MP1 with T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. UTG calls t800, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t3000</font>, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, BB calls t2200, UTG calls t2200. Flop: (t8550) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> BB checks, UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t4500</font>, BB calls t4500, UTG folds. Turn: (t17550) 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero ???</font> No reads on this particular player as he is new to the table. I honestly had no clue what to do here...I don't want to give free cards a draw, yet don't want to commit myself to the pot. |

Re: TT EP ... completely lost.
i think i'm cheecking behind here, and calling most bets on the river, and if checked to on the river, might make a tiny value bet for smaller PP's.

(The times you're up against a heart draw or a smaller PP outweigh the times he has a Q, I feel. Remember, there are only two cards out to beat you unless he's got an overpair, which seems unlikely.) |

Re: TT EP ... completely lost.
His call on the flop says draw all over it. He sees the draw out there, if he's got a queen he's pushing u all in in case your on a draw

Villain could have a lot of hands: a flush draw, a pp, a queen, AK/AJ/AT, or he could just think hero missed and is planning on taking the pot on the turn. |

Re: TT EP ... completely lost.
The question you have to ask yourself is: Can you get away from this hand? If you can, then check it and see what happens on the river.
I couldn't, and would push the turn. Probably big ace or smaller pocket pair. You are ahead the vast majority of the time here. Put on the pressure! |

I check behind and play the river passively.

Re: TT EP ... completely lost.
easy continuation bet of 1/2 the pot or maybe 40%. They have to respect that you have a hand with your preflop raise, don't they. If you get a reraise, easy fold to higher pocket pair or set. If you get a call, I check/fold on through unless i hit the boat on turn or river.
Why is everyone scared and giving free cards? You showed strength preflop, now continue!!! |

Re: TT EP ... completely lost.
I push the turn. There are 2 flush draws out there and there is too much in the pot. If villain has a Q, too bad.
Preflop, I might have limped, but that depends on my read of UTG and the table. |
