Default Re: Live 40/80 TT on button, tough flop spot.

The reason you bet here is because it's limit hold'em and you're only risking 1 sb to win 12. It's likely we are ahead often enough here but when players are loose PF and tricky postflop it's hard to put them on a hand, so playing perfectly (avoiding bets when we are already behind) is impossible, so we take the safe option and bet.

This might get SB to fold a hand like K8 or buy a free showdown.
