Default $22 Level 1 TT hand.

Reason for calling on the flop is that I have no idea if my hand is good and want to see what happens after I have acted.

Reason for folding after the re-reraise is that I have often in the past been overaggressive against twopairs in this situation.

Too weak not giving myself a chance to win this hand or smart to give this one up and preserve my stack for a situation I am more comfortable in?

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t15 (10 handed) converter

BB (t800)
Hero (t800)
UTG+1 (t800)
UTG+2 (t890)
MP1 (t785)
MP2 (t800)
MP3 (t800)
CO (t785)
Button (t770)
SB (t770)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].

I play it the same way. On the flop with six players there's a decent chance you're alredy beat at this point. I think folding to the t30 bet on the flop would be horrible since a lot of times it'll get called around and you'll get to see a cheap turn card. however, with a min-raise behind and a re-raise I can easily throw the hand away and feel good about it.

I would have made it 120 after BB's minbet to discourage draws behind me from getting frisky. Your hand is pretty damn strong here. You're probably ahead preflop.

After that action behind you on the flop (raise and a reraise), I think you're behind someone who spiked a set and you can safely throw those tens away.

i would raise the flop. if you get reraised, get the chips in.

given the action, i would push over the T150 bet. you almost certainly have 10 outs if you're behind (more against 2 pr), and you may be up against some overplayed K9-type hands.
