Default bottom 2 pair flop fold?

2nd orbit, not a lot in the way of reads - player in question is a regular. party 10-20.


Hero is in the SB with 10 3 and 2000. Villian covers. Short stack had 400 or so.

shorty limps utg, MP limps as well, i complete the SB and BB checks.

Flop J 10 3. i lead for 50, shorty calls, regular raises to 200 i make it 650 shorty pushes, as does MP for all his chips. My move?

Oh, and i dont think regular is playing anything like Q J or K J this way. A J POSSIBLY.

after you bet the flop and were flat called, he raised. that equals strength.

after you made a big reraise and were called, he reraised again. that equals more stength. more than AJ.

i would mutter and curse to myself, then lay it down.

Smells like JT or perhaps does regular limp JJ often? Either way it's an easy fold.

BTW completing with 10-3? I don't see that as +EV.

fold.

I like the flop bet and the reraise, b/c it makes it obvious that you are very strong. Then you can fold when the regular kicks sand in your face anyway.

No offense, but playing T3 in the SB...hitting a miracle 2 pair and still losing 1/3 of a stack (assuming you folded...or your whole stack if you called)...serves you right. How could anyone playing those stakes think completing with T3 in the SB could be +EV?
