Default TT in capped pot

Reads:

BTN: 76.4/10.0/0.6, Plays weird. A lot of loose calls post flop.
BB only 5 hands. He played two of them aggro and won before show down.


5 handed .25/.5

<font color="green"> Hero raises </font> T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] UTG, CO folds, BTN calls, SB folds, BB 3-bets, <font color="green"> Hero calls </font>, BTN caps, all call.

Flop (3 players 12.5 sb): 8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], BB leads, <font color="green"> Hero calls </font>, BTN calls.

I thought about raising, but decided I was probably in trouble and a raise is unlikely to protect my hand.

Turn(3 players, 7.5 bb), 3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
BB checks, <font color="green"> Hero bets </font>, BTN raises, BB folds, <font color="green"> Hero calls </font>

After both villains slowed down, I thought I may be good and took a stab. After raise I feel beaten but still have FD.

River(2 players 11.5bb): 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

I c/c

Comments on all streets welcome!

I'm pretty happy with this, Sushi. I like the flop call, presumably waiting for a safe turn to raise. When the safe turn comes you lead. On the river, not sure who bet and if you overcalled, but against these two yik-yaks, I think I probably call regardless of the situation.

Button looks completely FOS, but BB's range is something to be worried about (until he checks the turn anyway). I like how you played it but I think I'd feel a lot better about my hand than you did.

I'll probably go ahead and just cap it myself preflop, but otherwise I like the line you took.

wow, this action is weird! I'd raise the flop &amp; go from there.

Edit: also i don't mind capping PF if &amp; only if you believe u can fold out OTB.

I dont think that I would have raised the turn if the BB had led.

I think that it would then have been more likely for the BB to have an overpair to your TT than say 99 or something like AK with a [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], which he might have led the flop with.

So, with the bttn padding the pot, I think that I would have continued to just call.

The most interesting street is the flop I think. Raise or not?

Call. Preflop action makes KK+ likely.

I wouldn't. I doubt button will fold anything useful and the flush on the turn might be very bad.
