Default Royal Flush Draw - TT

10/20 6-max (5-handed)

Hero is SB with T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].

Preflop: Button limps, Hero raises, BB calls, Button calls.

Button is an 80/6 calling station. This term is vastly overused but I really mean it here. Fish of this awfulness are rare even in the micros. He calls and calls and calls some more and misses extremely obvious bets and raises.

BB's stats show a classic 32/20 LAG-TAG after over a thousand hands. But something is wrong tonight. Either he is remarkably card dead or maybe someone else is playing his account. He's about 5/0 completely passive postflop after a couple dozen hands and this table has been a player or two short.

Flop (6 SB): A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (3 players)
Hero bets and both call.

Turn (4.5 BB) 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3 players)
All check.

River (4.5 BB) 8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (3 players)
Hero checks, BB bets, Button calls, Hero folds.

I wouldn't even bother to lead the flop. The rest is good.

I think you cant play it any different. The flop must be bet but when both call you are behind almost always. You want to see the river as cheap as possible, I like the turn check.
On the river you surely cant overcall, I dont think I would call it even without Buttons call.
Button is really really bad but he still has two cards and this board must look scary to anyone not blind.
Nothing else you can do.
