on this board vs most u have little to no fold equity. BB is not folding a pair here just cuz u raise the turn, all ur real hands raise the flop anyways so that line would look pretty bogus. U do have a ton of equity so ur bluff doesnt cost u much of anything to maybe fold out 6x 8x once in a blue moon but i just call and fold the river UI like u did.

I actually probably mite have raise freecarded the flop here but it doesnt matter much either way some people like always do that some people never do i duno whats best really, depends how likely bb is to 3bet or donk the turn or how likely he is to still lead a club T or J turn if u just call the flop.

raising does potentially cost u two more bets tho when u hit later in the hand when someone mite have lead into u but now check since u raised the flop. not saying i know which line is best but their is that con to raising now cant overlook that.

I raise preflop if I think BB is likely to fold a large range and it gets me good fold equity vs the limper postflop. otherwise i just overlimp JTs as well.

PF depends on the players. I like a flop raise for value+free card. IMO the value and a shot at a free card outweigh the implied odds you get from just calling.

EDIT: you dont have much FE here because no one folds a pair ever.

pf is close, i can see a raise or limp here depending on the limper and the blinds.

i probably raise flop too. you have tons of equity here. usually atleast one of your OCs is live, and often both. plus free cards are nice.

U have a big hand and your equity most be good. If they wont fold, I would raise and take the freecard on the turn if I miss.

I raise preflop

I raise the flop for value/free card.

I call the turn against 95% of the players on Ongame.
