25NL: I 4-bet TT in a blind war, no idea how to play flop

[KingOtter]

I don't like the 4-bet. It makes the pot huge for your hand, which really isn't all that great of a post-flop hand usually and leaves you in a hard place. Often you're getting overcards on the flop. If you raised to $9 for fold equity, then you should have just shoved.

I think the 4-bet was too much, personally. I would have called the $3 and re-evaluated on the flop. Then you're staring at a $6 pot, and you can lead $5 into it and see what he does. A big re-raise from the opp and you're out of there, for the same amount as you put in pre-flop and without being committed.

You're repping an AQ or higher, and unless he has AA/KK he's going to seriously consider folding that flop. For the same amount you have much more FE.
