$225: TT overpair
Raiser was a little LAG. MP2 flat caller is a complete donk (80 VPIP after ~20 hands). I would think a bigger overpair would bet more to protect themselves. Fine?

Re: $225: TT overpair
I would have raised preflop. Too much of a chance of weak Ax, broadways limping in behind me.
I damn sure would not have checked the flop unless I was absolutely certain someone behind me was going to bet so I could reraise as you did.

Re: $225: TT overpair
i like if you shoved. TT is not the greatest but that pot is huge and there is a good chance to take it down and when called you are probably just a slight dog to villians range.

Re: $225: TT overpair
You're dead on darinvg. Based on the action, you have to be ahead unless both these guys are complete nits. I would expect two folds to your shove most of the time. Nobody is slowplaying an overpair or set on this board.

Re: $225: TT overpair
With the combination of the weak bet and weak call, I think a shove is good, but I'm not thrilled about it.
Why no raise preflop? It's been a while since I've played a lot of 9man, so just asking if this is standard?

I'll raise MP and late but always open raise in lvl 3+.

Re: $225: TT overpair
Pf, I sometimes limp, sometimes raise. I like to bet out on the flop. If raised, you can be fairly certain you're behind. As played, Both of them look weak, though it's possible LAG could be doing this with a 99/77. I still like a shove.
