Default standard?

5/10 NL. I limp T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] UTG. A fairly weak passive player, a little on the weird side, makes it $35 from MP. Folded to me, I call.

We've both got 1K behind.

Flop:

K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

I check, he bets $10.

I call like a good little fishie.

Turn: T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

I check. He bets $50. I call.

River: 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

I check again. He bets $50 again.

I call.

No, not standard. Raise turn or river.

Is this live or online? I think it looks OK. Weirdo could have AQ and think it's the nuts though.

id probably raise the turn or river and fold to a re-raise since villain could have AK/AQ. not sure how weak-passive villain is so can't say much. check-calling doesn't look bad from your player description but i just always throw in a raise somewhere if I have a full house. maybe it's a leak.

is this 6 max or full ring?

I too hate the small bets and I like your line against this particular opponent but against a random I would try to get more money in there.

If you're limping UTG with TT, then aren't you looking to limp re-raise? Otherwise just open the pot yourself.

Why in the world would you not open the pot? Curious as to how you think limping then calling is of any value, especially since you lose a ton of the value TT affords if the pot is just limped all the way around.

TT out of position is a hand that doesn't want to play a big pot unless it hits a set.

The way to do that is to limp preflop, or limp/call a raise and play poker.
