TPTK oop

[Sir Winalot]

Haven't seen UTG do anything special. He seems solid enough but isn't too good.

Hero ($73)
BB ($60)
UTG ($94)
Button ($10)

Preflop SB with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
UTG calls, 1 folds Hero raises to $2.5, 1 fold, UTG calls

definitely bet turn for value, probably around 7. check/call the river as you're now splitting with any 10 and you can pick off random bluffs with 88-55 sometimes.

by no means hate it...i think this is a split a lot of the time...I probably lead the turn for 8-10..and then put another blockin bet out on the river of around 12-15

Opponent may hold pockets in his hand... maybe something like 66 or higher.

After you showed strengh Preflop a possible thinking of UTG could be that you did not hit the flop but bet Oop to represent a hit. Thats why he call with any pair.

The worst hand he could hold here is 99, TT or even higher.

The Bet on the River seems like he wants to be called. I would call here the river bet, medium pocket is maybe in his hand.

I think this is fine

[Sir Winalot]

Here's my reasoning for checking turn:

- He doesn't have a draw here so no need to protect
- He is probably going to fold 88-55 to a turn bet
- T9 beats us now
- Checking induces bluffs
- Checking makes my hand look like I'm giving up after a c-bet
- There aren't many cards that can hurt me on the river

And river:

- I'm splitting with other T's
- Induces bluffs or a bet from 9x,88-55
- He probably doesn't think I can beat 55 all too often (I could be wrong here though)

Looks good. The only thing I would do different is usually raise to 6BB pre flop in this situation.

Hand seems exactly how you want to play with TPTK and extract the most out of Mid-PP.

[Hank Scorpio]

Standard. Check that turn almost always. Your hand isn't great. Love the river check, too.
