Stumbling into a set.....(I thought i folded already....)

boondockst · #1 08-05-2005, 01:38 PM

It's a bad habit but I had the "Fold to any Bet" checked after that flop as the pot was multiway and frantically unchecked it on the river (after it auto-checked for me)

Does anyone find a raise here? Plan if reraised?

Preflop: Hero is BB with T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $0.10.
2 folds, CO calls $0.25, Button calls $0.25, SB (poster) completes, Hero checks.

just call. if he has air he is not going to call a raise and there is a decent chance he has QJ.

I concur. A decent raise to $8-$10, after that overbet into a desert of a pot, is too likely to be called/reraised only by better hands to be a good value play, I should think.

He only has $28. I'll lose that with a set any time. Raise it up.

Also raise PF, bet flop.

what exactly do you think the button is going to call a raise with after checking the hand down the whole way and then overbetting on the river that a set of tens beats?

The question here is how many hands will villian make this play on the river with. I agree with Xorbie here, raise it to 8-10. Villian will call assuming a bluff with a variety of hands here. JMO

Two pair.

I usually do raise TT...over 100 times (at NL 25) of it i've raised 73% of the time (and i'm sure sometimes the pot was already raised)

I'd just demolished an idiot who'd open-raised to 8 (AK) with my AA to jump up to ~125ish and didn't want to start bullying the table. While not a good reason in itself, I prefer passive tables that let me draw with very good odds and still flat-call pot-sized bets...I've also been trying to fix a leak in my game as far as being too aggressive with hands multiway OOP.

T5? KT? Neither of them are likely given that I have 3 of them are out...I can't see the Button checking an ace on the turn, no matter the kicker...
