MP ($216.53)
CO ($50)
Hero ($111)
SB ($183.90)
BB ($391.73)
UTG ($100)

Preflop: Hero is Button with T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. CO posts a blind of $1. SB posts a blind of $0.50. UTG posts a blind of $1.
UTG (poster) checks, MP calls $1, <font color="#CC3333">CO (poster) raises to $2.52</font>, Hero calls $3.52, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, UTG calls $2.52, MP folds.

Analysis: In position, standard preflop raise I call. I dont usually reraise here against an unknown. I dont think I should fold it either

Flop: ($13.06) 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">CO bets $10.38</font>, Hero calls $10.38, UTG folds.

Analysis: Roughly pot sized bet on the flop. I have an overpair. This is where I think I screwed up. Should I reraise here? Fold?

Turn: ($33.82) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
CO calls $36.10 (All-In), Hero calls $36.10.

Analysis: Crap...picked up a straight draw and he goes all in. Im thinking I should have folded it here. Damn shortstack.

River: ($106.02) Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>

Final Pot: $106.02

3bet preflop in position.

Reraise preflop to define your hand. I don't like playing TT so passively; especially since most flop raises are putting CO AI.

3 bet even against a short stack?

Yes, because you can easily fold preflop ... whereas postflop it becomes much more difficult and stack sizes come into play.

3x his raise preflop and see what happens.

Why the hell does everyone want to threebet preflop? Are you all seriously in the habit of reraising with TT preflop? This hand doesn't seem to be at all the type of hand you want to do that with. Unless you flop a set, what on earth is your plan for the rest of the hand given that you have a marginal one pair hand in a pot you just unnecessarily bloateD?

TT is a great holdem hand and you'll take the lead in the betting postflop.

We're playing 6max so the original preflop raiser doesn't always have pair over pair domination on us.

We need to calm down, define our hand with a 3bet and proceed accordingly. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I'll reraise a (full stacked) TAG with TT because you have the added PF FE there. You have to make hands against shorties, because they'll go to the felt quickly with most pairs and draws. I like the preflop call. The flop call is OK sort of. Fold on the turn. All pp's 77-AA are now beating you. Give him credit and move on. You are behind his range here.

It's a good hand, you have position and it keeps your range wide. Even though practically at NL 50 and 100 I don't know how much your opponents are paying attention so it might not matter at all, I think it's probably a good idea as you move up (not that I know, since I'm just getting started and just getting to NL 100, it seems like a good habit.)

A lot of the time he'll fold preflop, a lot of the time he'll fold to a c-bet if he calls with overs and they whiff, and occasionally you'll make a set and he'll have AA and the big pot will make it easy to get your stack in the middle.

And occasionally he'll 4-bet AA and that sucks too.

So?

We're getting 2:1, the question is, do we have it in equity, now are we ahead of his range.

vs just 77+ and AcKc we dont have odds:

But amazingly, we just need to add 66 in there and we do have odds. This isn't quite as easy a fold as people think
