Default NL 400 JT 2 pair

Table is kinda wild as the big stack is an 83/5. Villain is new to the table, I have no stats on him, so assume standard PP NL400 player. I continuation bet a lot, Villain may or may not know this. Plan here? Does the plan change if there were no flush draw?


Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (6 max, 5 handed) converter

Hero ($410.10)
Button ($394)
SB ($275.10)
BB ($1077.12)
UTG ($564)

Preflop: Hero is MP with T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $2.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $14</font>, Button calls $14, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, BB calls $10.

Flop: ($44) T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $30</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to $100</font>, BB folds, Hero ...?

This is a very tough spot. I think this comes down to your read on him and how he has played previous hands. Does he use position well? Does he raise his draws? Could he have Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] here?

He probably has a very loose calling range on the button.


If you think you are ahead or he is drawing, I would consider calling and then getting it on a blank turn.

The problem is, there are soooooo many ugly turn cards.

I think 3 betting here is very bad as you would either be behind to a made hand or behind a big draw, so i would probably call/fold/raise in that order.

Fold.

You are even money against a draw like AJ diamonds. And well behind any other hand.
