Thank you. That's what I thought, just wanted to make sure it wasn't over the top.

Looks alright. You could do a little less like 18 or so, but the money is going in here either way it looks like...

I don't like the flop reraise. You have BB sandwiched in there, so I'd just call the flop and hope to squeeze a few more $$ out of BB by checkraising the turn.

Button shouldn't be minraising the flop if he has the case ten, so you're ahead here. Any decent pocket pair is gonna give you action, so prepare to get paid off.

This line wouldn't have been too bad, either. After the flop raise and cold/call, I didn't really consider simply calling. I figured at least one of the two would come along.

Anybody else have thoughts pro/con SpyDog's call raise, check/raise the turn theory?

I love it. Sorry if he had a T.

the check-raise turn line is definately smarter. With that flop, you wanna get as much money as possible in the middle.

There is no real reason to raise the flop here (except of course to get more money in the pot) - whatever they are holding they can't really improve and there is no need to check the strength of their hands.

I agree with the smoothcall on the flop, but either way i don't see the BB putting in any more money. After a minraise and a call, he's probably gone regardless, and even if he's in, you only gain $3, and without a T he'll c/f turn.

The good thing about the line you took is that it does the best job of getting the button's stack in.
