Yep. Fold that garbage pre-flop, even out of the SB.

Post flop is fine. As far as getting sixthed, it's just a fluke that two other people had T9 (and played it).

fold preflop. Fold flop. Other than that you're fine.

On the flop you have a gut straight draw on a two tone board which you don't have that suit. On top of that your low draw sucks. This is just not worth calling on the flop...EVER.

i agree that you should fold pre-flop. don't be fooled by the low price you're getting to enter the pot. that hand will get you in trouble on way more occasions than it will flop a wheel or some other lock.

and yes, i agree that you played flawlessly post-flop.

SO you advocate open folding on the flop?

thank you all for your replies. It seems as though this was a loose preflop call but other than that pretty standard.

Now I am worried I leak money from the SB. PTO says I voluntairly put money in the pot from the small blind 57 percent of the time. Is this to loose?

While I am at it I might aswell post my other stats just too see if I am completely off somwhere. I know this is an extremely small sample but perhaps something of value can be derived from it.

hands: 1014
VPIP: 26.13
VPIPSB: 56.83
went to SD: 38.77
won money at SD: 53.79 (this seems painfully low)
PF raise: 4.64

Flop aggr factor: 2.89
turn aggr factor: 2.76
river aggr factor: 1.33
tot aggr factor: 1.33

regards
flex

Fold preflop even for a fraction of a bet.

So you got sixthed, it happens.

You have to love a game where people are playing hands like 389T and A9TT. It should be very profitable.

I think completing the small blind with those rags is pretty thin, even with that many callers. After that, there is nothing you can do.
