Difficult hand
I am on the button with a pair of tens, stack 15 BB's (a little below average stack at this point).
UTG calls (13 BB stack), UTG+1 raises 1 BB (30 BB stack), UTG+2 calls (25 BB stack). I have little info on the players, meaning they are probably OK. My problem is that I would prefer a heads up situation, but still I want to protect myself from the possible big pocket pair. I think my stack is too small to just call and look for the set. What do I do? Do I fold my handsome TT? (Of course, the question is asked because I went in too strong and came up against KK.) |

Re: Difficult hand
Hey Kristian,
I don't think there'd be anything wrong with calling and trying to see a flop. Of course, what level in the tournament you're at by now would have a little impact on this. If you call and see a non-threatening flop (all low cards) then you can push hard there and drive out possible overcard hands. Your only other option, IMO, is to push preflop, but I wouldn't do this very often, and again, depending on the stage or the tourney. Welcome! |

In a feeble attempt to redeem myself, I will just say that I didn't push until I saw the flop which was all rags. But I did reraise him strongly preflop which I am now quite confident was a mistake. |
