Default Re: [PL20] I have an ovrpair + oesfd, hows my play

[ QUOTE ]
Villian 1 I have no read on, he doesn't matter he has a 5$ stack. Villian 2 has almost 200bb (35$), and I have him covered. Villian 2 has been raising a lot of hands pf, most of them seem to be pairs with some cards nearby. He seems like a donk, and kind of stupid.
I'm in the bb with K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] and it is 4 handed. UTG folds, villian 2 raises to 0.70 on the button, villian 1 calls, and I reraise to 2.60$ because my hand is a lot better than most of what he is raising. Both players call, pot is around 9$
flop: 5 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
Shorty goes all in for 3$, and I minraise to try to cheaply force the button out (probably a mistake). Button calls. Turn is the
T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
giving me an OESFD, and villian has around a psb left. I really thought about betting the pot, and I probably should have. I checked though, and he bet the pot. I called (this is why I think I should have bet. If I'm going to call, might as well have some fold equity since my hand has to improve to win probably).
River is the

I check, he bets his last 4$, and I call because I'm getting around 18:1.

I think your biggest problem is that you are shouldn't have repotted preflop out of position. It is true you may have the best hand, but you cannot get enough of your stack in preflop to make this move worthwhile. I would not have repoted AAXX unless my sidecards were awesome.

As played:
On the flop your play isn't terrible, but I would have probably just raised the pot. 852 isn't a flop that is likely to help your other opponent, but a min raise by your might have let a 34XX or 76XX hand call.

As played:
What hand that called on the flop improved with the turn card? Perhaps T8XX, but that is unlikely. I like a pot sized bet here to make any OESD pay. If you get called and are behind, you still have a chance to make your hand.
