TT UTG, t-stone 1-3.

[man]

this situation always makes me feel awkward.

table is a $1-$3 spread limit on all streets. the table is filled with the worst of the worst. villain seems to know more about the game than the average god-awful player at the table. he's aggressive and on the loose side, but I've seen him fold for one bet on the turn/river, so he's not exactly a calling station.

I get TT UTG. I raise to $4 over $1 blinds. villain (UTG+1) calls, all fold.

flop: A 9 5 r ($10 pot)
I bet $3, villain calls quickly.

turn: A 9 5 (4) ($16)
I bet $3, villain raises, I...? (ok, I called.)

river: A 9 5 (4) (not a T) ($28)
I check, villain bets, I...

this pattern of me sucking at poker has got to stop.
