50 NL- JTs on paired board multiway

[ajml]

I'll preface this with the comment that I imagine my play in this hand isn't going to be too popular on here but anyways..

Both button and BB are 22/15 players over a large sample and I expected them to fold and I would fold to any resistance to them. This particular BTN has played a lot of hands with me over the past few days and has called raises like this from me preflop fairly often. I have no reads on UTG because I just sat down other than hes sitting with half a stack and has a picture of a baby in his avatar (so hes probably a 38/6/1.... jk sort of). I feel like often enough he just has overs, a flush draw or a smaller pocket pair. Thoughts?

I think the line is fine and standard if you stick to the plan you outlined.

[mrw8419]

Blahh, he was prepared to c/r the entire field so this seems like more strength. I think its a laydown.

[tiger_hall]

its just a horrible situation...
you enter the hand to hit with it...
you are calling this bet on the stance that you entered the hand to hit this

With that in mind, why did you raise preflop at all?

Limping would have been fine....

[phil iveyND]

this call is def. spewing chips your behind almost his entire range.

[ajml]

I see some merit in limping or folding preflop. However I do not think I am behind most of his range here. I think it includes many unpaired hands, small pairs, and possibly a FD w/ over(s). I am not positive I am ahead to enough of his range though here to make this call. Any other thoughts on different flop actions or is this okay to cbet?

[phil iveyND]

With no reads what makes u think UTG is so aggressive c/r
this flop with unpaired hands on a complete bluff, or a small pair.

exactly

[ajml]

I could certainly see him doing this with a small pair because he doesn't think this flop hit my hand
