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.

maybe i've been playing 6max too much lately but i raise TT everytime from every position. if you won't raise TT there, when you DO raise utg, your opponents can narrow your range to, what, 5 hands tops?

btw, limp-calling preflop and flopping a set is not the way to win big pots. when a limp-caller gives a ton of action postflop it screams set.

In 6-max I'm firing with TT preflop pretty much all the time.

I do all right with the limp calling in the full ring.

Sometimes I raise hands like TT UTG. Sometimes I raise hands like 65s. Sometimes I raise AA. Sometimes I limp all of them from UTG. I limp more than I raise.

He had KK.

I think the play was to fold to the initial cutesy $10 bet.

One man's cutesy bet is another man's fraidy-cat bet. I'd rather die than fold to a minbet when my hand stands even the slightest chance of improving.
