TT in a giant pot
$15-30 at the Bellagio.
UTG is pretty good from what Ive seen. MP1 is really loose passive. CO is too loose also but not as bad (30%vpip id guess). Button thinks hes good but hes not. I get two black tens in MP2. UTG raises, MP1 calls, I 3-bet, CO reluctantly calls telling me hes got a good hand, too, Button throws the chips in like its his job, UTG 4-bets and everyone calls. (20sb) Flop is 5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img],5 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img],7 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] UTG bets, MP1 calls, I call, CO calls, Button calls. (12BB) 8 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] UTG bets, MP1 calls, I?

Re: TT in a giant pot
I kind of think raising is a bad option because if we get 3-bet we most likely have to call for our 2 outter. It seems like we would get 3-bet often with the board and preflop action. But I cant fold, can i? How bad is calling?

I'm probably not folding, but it might be right. So, I think calling down is okay. Tough hand. I hope someone else can say something more intelligent.

I mean, with a single bet, he's giving everyone the correct pot odds to call these bets with nothing who might very well draw out on him. I could see this line if he flopped quad 5s and wants callers, but then the pre-flop action doesn't make sense. I'd call down as well, I guess.

Especially when you don't know where a bet is going to come from anyways?

Re: TT in a giant pot
I put him on an overpair here which beats your tens so it's an easy fold here to me. With all these folks in the pot I have a hard time seeing you end up taking this one down.
If it where just down to you two guys, I would recommend a raise here and if he calls and still bets on the river it's a fold.

Re: TT in a giant pot
Check raise the flop? Who's going to bet that flop, a 68?
Betting the flop with the best hand is right. Him betting into 4 callers on the turn is the hint-and-1/2 for your ass that he has a larger pair most of the time. Hes not capping 99 preflop out of position.

Re: TT in a giant pot
why would you raise headsup if you put your opponent on a better hand? so that you could fold for one more bet as opposed to showing down?
