Default Re: TT on BB. Family pot. What do you do?

*grunging*

PFR for value, and if flop turns out to be pretty scray, i'd play it like this:

If flop puts one overcard on board: i would attempt a CR (hoping the bet comes from CO or Button) in order to drive out hands holding overcards to my T's.

If flop brings more than one overcards, i'll b/f

c/r'ing whatever flop is pretty bad. No one's gonna believe you. No one who's got you beat will fold. You just give them the chance to play correctly against you: if they have or even beat TP, they'll trey you, if they are drawing thin against a a pair (and they'll assume TP), they'll - correctly - fold.

Table is very loose and passive (6 max). Several limpers in just about every pot. What do you do in this situation? I know this situation doesnt come up very often, but I'd like your view on it.

The default play is to raise. Bet most flops and go from there.

Is this a no-brainer value raise or should you avoid bloating the pot preflop in case you need to protect from then onwards?

[/ QUOTE ]

Given the choice between the "standard" play which is for value and an "adjustment" based solely on the idea of wanting to protect a hand, 99% of the time it's better to go with value. Most of the time, you won't be in position to protect anything anyway.

Ok, thanks all.
The reason I posted this scenario was that a friend of mine suggested raising would be a bad play due to reverse implied odds.

I strongly disagreed with him and wanted to get some backing here. I think I got it [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

He's way off about RIO, unless you suck and decide that you have to show down TT because it's a good preflop starting hand. It's not a no-brainer postflop, but RIO isn't a concern with this type of hand.

Definatly raise, I'd do a 3xBB +1 BB for each limper if it's a loose game. Then you'll know what kind of hands people have. You will have no idea where you are if you just call to see the flop.
