i just wanted to post this and see what everyone says without any commentary from me.

its the party $2K NL. i have almost $3k in this hand. preflop raise was because of the passive table and because i was loving getting heads up with the BB... just ignore it anyway

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $10.

the PF raise is incredibly standard for me... thats actually a good hand for an open right there, haha.
i would call here. i dont even think its close. look how much they have... there are lots of draws, SB could have any iof them... BB is bad, right?
\why in gods name did you not raise the flop right off the bat with those stack sizes???

I would have originally raised the flop bet from BB, but you say you have history with him.....so whatever. Fold when it gets back to you, I think you're drawing thin to a set/straight.

this is board is pretty drawheavy, and I'd think QT is good here. I think you'll see KJ from sb or a flush draw, and AQ from BB often enough to make this call profitable. Congrats on folding correctly if you did, but I like a call here.

calling here is awful. youve invested just a little in the pot and a straight or set are way too easy on this board. run screaming and get as far away from your hand as possible.

no way can calling here be awful. If its a fold, its definitely close. I mean just look at the pot odds, we are like 4.2-1 to fill by the river an we're getting almost 3-1...

You're assuming that there are two players all-in and neither one of them has a Q or a T.

it seems pretty presumptuous for you to make such an assertive post considering the other posts you have been making in this forum. by the way, "youve invested just a little in the pot" is not a good reason to fold.

Whatever dude. I've been reading the twoplustwo forums for five years now and over that time mike l. has consistently contributing good stuff. He is as much license to be assertive as anyone else.
