Can't we just call with TT in position and see a flop? I feel like when we 4-bet there we're almost turning our hand into a bluff and getting it all in versus JJ+ and AK.

Against a nit, maybe. I highly doubt this is the case BvB against a reg @ 5/10.

Just not really true, considering that people nowadays 3b a lot of lower pairs, and are far more willing to 5b jam light.

I notice you only bet like 40% pot. I love the small bet sizing, because really here we are just trying to protect our hand from overcards and awkward river decisions so there's not much reason to bet more. My main concern is an issue of exploitability where he might see that bet as weak and start raising us with air. Is that a concern here? Is this play balanced at all or do we have a read that when we bet on the turn in this situation he's never going to be bluffing us so we can make our bet smaller? Thank you.

It was actually SB vs CO I believe, which means his 3-betting range will be a lot tighter than BvB. In a SB vs. BB scenario I agree 100% that I'm not folding TT.

I think it's more of an issue of what site you're playing at, because when I try to jump into a 5/10 NL game where I play based on by experience TT is almost never good when you get 5-bet here. If it's standard to just get it in with TT at FullTilt in that spot then fair enough.

Oh sorry I meant button vs. blinds the first time. I don't really think SB vs CO changes things enough to make TT not a shove PF - It'd have to be something like UTG vs MP or UTG vs SB. I don't play 5/10, but you're really saying that no one 5-bet bluffs in your games? I think we see 2 or 3 cases of ppl showing small PPs/SCs (yes one was from Dani) in the 15 minutes of footage we got through. I'd be a little surprised if other 5/10 games (eg stars, the bigger euro sites) play that differently.

One other thing - FWF talked about getting TT in PF in a spot similar to this in one of the episodes of Dear FWF. I can't remember what EP it is, but it's the first hand he talks about in the given video. Might be good to check out.

so would we raise the turn if we float 1072R w/QJ and turn comes 9, K, or A... or do we just float again?
