Default $40/$80, TT hand.

Pretty good B&M game. I just got moved to this game, so I've only played a couple orbits, and haven't seen many flops. I've taken down one good sized pot when my AK flopped an ace.

Unknown player open raises in MP, I 3-bet with T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] in LMP, BB calls. (BB is a loose aggressive bad player)


Flop: 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Checked to me and I bet, BB call, MP call.

Turn: Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

BB checks, MP bets, your action??

what does he look like? what race is he? how old is he? has he played any hands other this one since youve shown up? if this was the net id say raise it, but live 40, prolly a fold. if it was Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] i think this fold would be easier.

Well the pot is big, I don't think I would fold.

Raise? I'm thinking the bettor does not have a flush as he would try and checkraise 2 people. So therefore, you may have him beat and thus would want to protect your fragile hand against the BB. If bettor does have you beat with something like AQ, then this play may not cost you anything as he may be afraid of the flush and check the river.

He could very well have the Ad.

Call and see what BB does and what the river is.
Or
Raise and fold to a 3-bet / Check behind on the river.

40-50 years old, persian maybe? He had played a few hands, seemed an okay player, maybe a little loose from what little I'd seen.

Raise and Fold to a 3-bet seems like the best line...Watch him closley if he calls and does not 3-bet, Possible value bet on the river.

Raise and take the free showdown. If he fires into you on the river call if non-diamond, fold if diamond.
