Re: 5/10 NL UB - New to the Table River Bluffage?
Hey Fight - What's with all the PF re-raises? At least you're in position this time...
You can't re-raise here without some rationale like "the raiser will raise with any 2 cards and I have to take control of the hand away from him" or if you're trying to set up some kind of play, or something similar. If you're simply re-raising b/c you think TT is a strong hand then you need to reevaluate some parts of your game. Initiating the action with this hand is great - 5 limpers to you on the button - you make it $200, fine - but reraising here without some kind of read is just asking for trouble IMO.
The way the rest of the hand played out is kind of a disaster as well. Your all-in on the end may have worked, but it feels desperate, and I would've called you with AQ (if that's what villain had).
Don't get too enamored with pretty good hands before the flop - If you don't hit flops hard, then be content to win small pots, not create huge ones. Playing a $2000 pot with second pair is not my idea of fun.
Hope it worked out.
