no reads on villain, but i pretty much know where i'm at after the turn, if not the flop... although with a card that kills action that much, i'm not sure what the best play is. i think his most likely holding here is an overpair, but i don't know if a push is getting called

[luckychewy]

why the [censored] did you check the turn?

[billyjex]

This looks pretty ugly. Raise preflop, limp/calling OOP w/ a hand like T7s is akward and is probably instaprofit for villian in the BB if he raises.

The flop, you check/raise too small. Your hand is extremely vulnerable. The turn, wtf? You let him take free cards with a billion draws if he wants too.

"how many outs do you have?"
"a billion"
"pair the board!"

i wouldnt put villain on an overpair here, not at all. his line isnt fully consistant with one, unless he sucks. no read, so you dont say he sucks. thererfore, its debateable whether he in fact does suck and has an overpair, or does not, and has something else.

i dont get the double checkraise, its too easy for him to check alot of hands back, just make it an even 300 on the turn...

yeah, pf is not great, but not awful, really. i would prefer making it 30 rather then calling the 30 in the first place, or possibly just giving it up and moving on to the next hand (WHICH IS A BUTTON HAND!) but its not like he is destined to fail based on pf. besdies, he flopped top two.!

i agree flop c/r should've been bigger, but its really not all that bad.

edit: 5000th post, NIIIICE

and - wait, his c/r was slightly less then half pot, you're right, he should've made it more. good call.
