TT overpair but villain keeps betting

[Noobler]

No, I did not 3bet hoping to flop a set. I wanted to isolate the villain and then I planned to cbet the flop. But once he led the flop I was a little lost. Looking back I think I should have raised the flop, but it does seem like it would commit me and I was not sure if I was ahead anymore.

I don't 3bet often preflop, but I am trying to widen my range. The result is I get put in situations that I am unfamiliar with, but still I am not sure I want to play for stacks and isn't that the result if I reraise the flop?

If you 3bet PF here, please don't make it 1,5$. Make it 2,5$ and observe his action. Raise flop and fold to a push. If villain calls your raise on flop, bet on turn. If called, I might c/c river. Stats/reads would help alot here..

I must say though, I really hate this line. Calling turn totally immobilizes your action on river if a Ten does not drop, because you have no idea where your villain is at.

For those that say raise the flop. Do I make it $10? At this point I have over half my stack in so am I pot committed now?

You do not need to make it $10 - the reason we are raising him on the flop is to find out where we stand so we can avoid a turn situation like we have (also for value alot of the time). Makeing it $7.50 or even $7.00 lets you see where you are at without costing you alot of money.

If you raise and he folds it is ok, if you raise and he calls he will check turn to you and you can value bet or check, if you check, and he fires decently at the river - fold, if not value bet or check behind, and fold to a 3bet on the flop.
