Default three tens in a tough spot

no reads. my image is lag. i think i forced myself into calling the way i played this hand. my hand is pretty under represented i would say. the line i took is very much that of 66-99, JJ-AA. so in his mind, he could easily shove here with nothing and i would have to fold any one of those hands. my hand has to be good 31% to break even.

Full Tilt Poker - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $2/$4 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker HH Converter)

As played you have to call obviously, since the only reason to make that bet on the river is to induce a bluff.

seems fine, although it's not a great river card to try this on, if you plan on calling a shove, what with the only draw getting there.

With your image though, I'd generally just keep firing away, or c/r the turn (although stacks aren't great for a c/r).

what? you can fold, and I probably would, also your image matters none so focus your reads on your image through his eyes, and more importantly how he plays and if he even cares.

I dont like raising UTG with JTo, but to each his own. as played not sure I could lay it down, but sure does seem like you're beat.

easy fold, though I like the river bet rather than check/calling.... but seriously you're behind an enormous amount of the time here.

my yeah the prob is that you really ask villian to bluff you at the river w/ your weak 1/4 potbet

but i guess if i would be villian i really would never expect to see JT at the sd
but w/o good reads this is still a tough spot

this is a gross river bet, if you don't know going into it how you're going to respond to a raise/shove.

c/c river would be my choice. if a few hundoes deeper, c/r becomes an option.

Preflop is yucky and not betting the turn is pretty bad. On the river, I like betting a larger amount and folding to a raise.

i think given the board + your image, not CR the turn is bad for many reasons no??

Since you've c/c the turn... I think betting 100+ fold to raise is fine or C/c again... I don't know which line is better.
