Default JTs, humongous pot. Oh, and I moved up.

SB is a lag, and a moron
BB is a little loose (33%), but I consider him a taggish player.
MP is similar to BB, but maybe a little worse. I put him on the same hand as me by the flop. I can't believe he bet that river, he should have checked it to me.

Preflop: Hero is Button with T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].

How is this anything but standard? 3betting flop is good. Going for overcalls from two opponents who have come along for two capped streets is also good if you put MP on the same hand as you.

nah, no point going for overcalls in this big of a pot, especially knowing that sb is a moron and will likely call a double bet. Anyone willing to call one bet, is probably willing to call two bets. Also figure that if you get some one or two people to cold-call you, you'll get 3bet, and you can cap. Plus you could be ahead of an overplayed set. I'm raising this river.

Well, I thought me and MP had finally slowed down the stupid SB, so I wasn't sure he'd call two river bets, but I guess if there's any chance he does, I should have, since I have a partner in this hand.

I was pretty pissed that MP bet the river, he was in perfect position to trap the field for extra bets, and it was pretty obvious what my hand was.

Not raising the river is a crime against humanity.

I was going to say, you have to visit OOT and post a minimum one-paragraph response to each of the last ten threads, but that seemed a little too cruel.

As the SB might have actually folded for two bets, no one else called anyway, and you ended up chopping the pot with MP, I'll let you off with a warning [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].

How do you just call the river with the stone cold nuts? And why are you surprised that he bet with river with the same hand?
