Default Re: $600NL Not sure if I should turn TT into bluff here

The overcall on the flop looks pretty strong IMO, but maybe I'm being too optimistic. I think if we are planning on turning this hand into a bluff we should do it on the flop after some second thoughts. A flop squeeze here looks super strong, and I think he may be more likely to let go of a better overpair here with the other flop caller still left to act.

I think most of the time a player with 222 in wpr's spot is calling the flop. And so raising the flop looks weaker than calling, no?

I'd be more willing to stack off with a good overpair if reraised on the flop. I wouldn't be happy at all to see wpr continue to fire on turn and river after flat-calling the flop.

weird, but i think i like this, since your flop over-call looks so super strong. of course, we could do this with any hand but i feel that anything less than 8x will have a really hard time calling down here (provided you jam the river).

so if we win the hand most of the time by seeing a showdown but basically every time by doing this then i guess it has to be best?

The problem is that making villian wince is one thing, but making him fold a good hand is another. I've lost track recently of the number of times in FR games that big pairs just c/c, c/c in spots like this. Yes you will fold out better hands sometimes, but prob not enough to make betting better than checking and hoping to get to showdown IMO.
