A TT Hand For Your Consideration

[Hojglad]

2+2er is sometimes known to be loose and aggressive, especially at 0.5/1.

I decided to slow down here, it's likely that I'm behind.

Final Pot: 20 BB

What do you put 2+2er on? Any other suggestions for ways to play this hand? I was thinking about going for a river checkraise, but it was pretty obvious that 2+2er was seeing red and loved his hand.

i think you played it great, i think he has 99

After the BB 3-bet the flop, I would probably try for a SnG from there. You got it heads up, now its time to see the turn and reevaluate.

Since BB raised you again on the turn, I agree its time to slow down and check-call down, but why'd you lead out the river again? And then 3-bet it? How is that slowing down?

[Hojglad]

I hit the straight on the river.

Nice hand. TT/99/88/66/22 all look like good options for the 2+2er. His river raise might suggest TT though unless he misread the board.

I missed it on the first read too. Doh!

Looks like he had 88/99 and put you on a big overpair. Well played.

Keep in mind this 2+2er was me...

I agree with the 88/99 suggestion... I have a feeling 88 b/c of the flop action

Bet the flop
