Default $50+5 B&M top/bottom pair, low number of starting chips

B&M sitNgo at Canterbury Card Club in Shakopee, MN. 10 handed, 300 chips to start. blinds go up every 15 minutes, starting 10/15 then 10/25 but then they go up super fast -25/50, 50/100, etc. att he 25/50 level . 3 pay but 3rd you just about get your $$ back. We're about 8 handed at this point.

two callers - I have about 550. MP has about 400. button has 325.

I have T2o in the blinds.
Flop T92 two of one suit. I bet 75. MP calls, button calls. Turn is a Q, but not of the flush suit. I lead 75 again, MP raises to 250, button calls all-in for 250. I can call or raise another 150 or so.

and I....?

Push. And I can't understand how it's possible to make any money in this game. After 15 min you'll have 12BBs if your stack is about the same stack as you started with?

After 15 min. of a turbo you have 15 BBs.

yes, I regret not pushing. I was using MTT logic. How you make money is the fishy that aren't aggressive enough and the bad players (but you have to avoid bad play yourself).

BTW, caller had Q for top pair, re-raiser had 66 and was making a move. and the river was a 2 for a FH. bad fold. 3rd place for the tournament.

sorry. I definitely push here, probably on the flop.

what was the pot size, how much are the blinds?

15 real minutes does not equal 15 internets minutes. Poker chips move faster through tubes than they do across felt.

Also, OP should just open shove the turn.
