Default Baluga be damned! I have a pair...I call (what\'s new).

Don't have many hands on villain but he seems TAGish. I'm up to my normal shenanigans, and at this particular table I'm running like 42/37 so far and taking down a lot of pots w/o showdown...so take that FWIW.

How bad is this?

Full Tilt Poker - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.50/$1 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker Hand History Converter)

SB: $99.00
BB: $176.40
UTG: $196.10
MP: $86.10
Hero (CO): $104.60
BTN: $104.90

Preflop: Hero is dealt T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (6 Players)
UTG folds, MP calls $1.00, <font color="red">Hero raises to $4.50</font>, BTN calls $4.50, 2 folds, MP calls $3.50

Flop: ($15) 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3 Players)
MP checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $12.00</font>, BTN calls $12.00, MP folds

Turn: ($39) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $30.00</font>, <font color="red">BTN raises all-in to $88.40</font>, Hero calls all-in for $58.10

WE HAVE A GUTSHOT! Seriously, you're getting good odds here, but against a TAG shove here, you're probably drawing only to a 7, and even that might be for a split. Fold.

Are you joking?

Are you saying a tag would never get it in with one pair or a draw vs this type of lagtard image? u should be taken out back and shot sir.

Obv he's got something and it's quite possible ur in trouble, however his range gets pretty wide because of your table image, you're ahead of a FD. i say call and just hit ur 2 pair or straight and don't worry about it.

p.s. I hate your turn bet, if your goal is to get it all in, c/r don't lead and let him shove on you.

bad form sir.

Since when do standard TAG's flat a set on this board? 79s is the only legit hand that actually worries me...but do TAG's call w/ that pre?

And as trivial as it seems, w/o the gutter I probably do fold here.

villain must assume that he has like zero fold equity right?
hate it

im also not a fan of the turn bet size, but i guess once you make it your planning to call shove

Not saying it NEVER happens...just saying raising is "standard" and most TAGfish raise a set here like 95% of the time IMO.
