Default TT vs. BTN shotstack

Reads: Villain seems to pretty bad, made some questionable plays. No stat cos' hud is not working on ftp for me

anyway, I'm clueless in these type of spots. My hand is probably the best and I should 3 bet. But this guy is most likely not going to fold to a 3bet and then I will end up in a pot where he only has a psb left and atleast one overcard on the flop.

My initial thought was to call and see a flop and stack of if I flop an overpair. But alot of the times I'll just spew away some chips like I did now.

How should I play this?

Full Tilt Poker, $0.50/$1 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 6 Players
LeggoPoker Hand History Converter

CO: $73.85
BTN: $48.70
Hero (SB): $99
BB: $98.90
UTG: $151.70
MP: $57.30

Pre-Flop: T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (SB)
3 folds, <font color="red">BTN raises to $4</font>, Hero calls $3.50, BB folds

Flop: ($9) 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 Players)
Hero checks, <font color="red">BTN bets $8</font>, Hero calls $8

Turn: ($25) 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players)
Hero checks, <font color="red">BTN bets $23</font>, Hero folds

These spots suck. And halfstacks suuuuck.

I probably 3bet pf then CRAI any flop that only has one overcard, probably c/folding to a coordinated 2-overcard flop and maybe calling 1 street and checkfolding turn.

But i hate shortstacks and am not sure i play even half decent against them. Anyone else on the merits of this line?

If he's pretty bad, then this seems like an easy 3 bet. You're way ahead of his range, and being scared of overcards shouldn't be an excuse. With your method, you probably lost the minimum, but i think you gave up a lot of equity.

You have really under represented your hand here. I am 3-betting this pre and probably leading flop against a ss in this situation. I agree with what everyone else said.

If he's bad and 'most likely not going to fold to a 3-bet' then I'd imagine it's profitable to 3-bet and stick him in on almost any flop.

3bet PF, get it in if the board isn't too bad.

1 overcard and 1 psb is easy. just bet it and hope he doesn't have it. trust me, he will call with worse

I guess 3 bet PF (leaving him with about a pot sized bet left) and push any flop?
