Just moved to this table, no reads. I've been active and haven't had to show anything down. I'm thinking the 2-pair hands, sets and better T's in his range outweigh the draws, and if I'm ahead, I've got to dodge a lot of cards... fold and move on?

Eh, your raise is rather large, but theres so much money in the pot, I think I would call.

what are the stack sizes?

I lead out when a flop looks like that, with 2 of the same suit. I think it makes it much easier to read - and cheaper.

I concur.

If I don't believe Villain I call here... but I certainly don't check-raise.

Villain wants to play for all his chips and I'm not sure that I would want to with this hand.

Yup, I agree, and you cant check raise here because MP1 never limps a weaker T... the only thing you are ahead of is a weak flush draw...

I think I fold here. bet/raise/reraise... I don't think your ahead here. U do have the odds to call here but what do u do if a club, or any face card turns and villain bets again...

dont check raise but lead out then after a reraise fold

he could limp with any better T here even ATo
