Default I hate how I played this hand(middle pair OOP)

No reads here.


Poker Stars
Limit Holdem Ring game
Limit: $0.50/$1
10 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (10 players) Hero is BB with 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, 6 folds, SB calls, Hero checks.

Flop: 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3SB, 3 players)
SB checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#cc0000">UTG+1 raises</font>, SB folds, Hero calls.

Turn: J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (3.5BB, 2 players)
Hero checks, <font color="#cc0000">UTG+1 bets</font>, Hero calls.

River: K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (5.5BB, 2 players)
Hero checks, UTG+1 checks.

Results:
Final pot: 5.5BB

Is calling down here after he raises me on the flop and bets the turn spewy? Even as I called the turn I said out loud "What am I doing?"

Where do you drop this hand? After the turn bet? Or does anyone fold after the flop raise?

On the flop u are getting 6:1 and I think that's enough to draw to ur 5 outer. Also there is some chance villain will take a FC. I think u should fold the turn without reads.

Sushi,

We don't know that we have 5 outs or any reason to think we have the implied odds to call even if we did given the fact that we are readless.

How many outs do you think we have?

It's a little spewy given how small the pot is. I wonder what he's open limping with UTG+1 personally. Lacking reads, I tend to err on the side of caution just until I can get a line on their style of play. If the villain starts demonstrating that they will raise a lot with draws or play fast in position against the blinds I'll be more inclined to call down with marginal holdings, but until I know how they play I'm much more willing to drop marginal hands, especially in a pot this small

Aaron,

I don't know but I don't think its an automatic five and even if it was it doesn't mean some unknown .50/1.00 online player is going to put in 3bb on the turn and river with a worse hand.

i'm ok with peeling the flop (though folding is at least fine and possibly better) but i definitely fold the turn.
