Default TJs in LP

Party 2/4, 2 limpers to me im LP with 10 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], I limp, folded to Button who limps, SB folds. 5 to the flop

K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Checked to me, I bet, Button raises, all fold to me, I 3-bet, button calls.

Turn K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

I bet, button raises, I make it 3, and he caps.

River K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

I check, he bets, I call.

I was pretty sure I was ahead on the turn, but had some serious doubts when that King showed up on the river.

Once the flop comes back to you its now heads up poker. You have a possible flush. You can call me weak-tight if you like, but I don't like the 3 bet here, you most likely won't buy the free turn or river cards.

Bet on the flop is ok, but I would just call the raise. Then check-call the turn, and check-fold the river.

Why are you three-betting? You are drawing to the 4th flush on the flop, and then to the 3rd flush with a paired board on the turn.

I know it's heads up, but the way the button is playing you have to believe he has you beat probably the whole way.

The reason for the 3-bet on the flop was that I had seen this player raise just about every flop he was on the button. I wanted to send the message that there would be no free cards this time and that hopefully he would lay down to a turn bet.

This is way too passive, in my view. I'd either bet (hoping to threebet) or check-raise the turn.
