TT in Overpair Flop

[voyamatarte]

Villian is MP2, 27%/12.5%/1.24. So,loose, quite aggresive PF, and pretty aggressive overall.

Standard.

I raise here to gain information and to drive out draw hands. In hindsight, there arent many draw hands here.

Ugh. What information did you get and what do you think you should do with it.

This is why "raising for information" is bad.

[Buzz-cp]

easy turn fold

[voyamatarte]

I did end up folding the turn, but I was stressed by the decision.

I think this is a bad habit I have from when I read phil hilmuths books that basically say to raise every frickin hand you have for information. I will try to cut this out. At these low limits, any information I would get anyways is tainted by poor players.

Thanks, K.

[terencetsao]

turn is a easy fold, i dont mind the flop raise.

[tyler_cracker]

i think the flop raise is mandatory. we have a decent hand and perfect position to protect it.

maybe its just me but a 1.24 af isn't pretty aggressive in my book.

Like Tyler said, I like the flop raise. Just don't call it for information. Your hand has a decent chance of being good here. After MP2 calls 2 on the flop and raises the turn, just get out. That chance of being good doesn't mean too much anymore.

*grunch*

Folds. You are at best in the hand w/ two outs. If BB didn't have you beat on the flop, I would say that MP2 certainly does now.

[ESKiMO-SiCKNE5S]

lol at the 'decision' to fold the turn.

the turn fold is easy. the turn bet is harder.

[Guitierez]

I was villain in this hand. I had you beat already on the flop (and I knew it) but I didn't want to drive BB out so I just called your raise, hoping you (or BB) will keep betting. With the turned Q I couldn't give any more free card and raised, but quite hoped you will call me down. After this very hand I took a note 'knows to b/f'.
