Did I play this hand well? I dont see vilain betting the river here with worst.

and what about a check raise on the flop?

In a vacuum I guess it is fine.
You should pay close attention to people's button opening range, because a TAG with the same VPIP/PFR can differ from 20% to 80%. I might 3bet if he is opening a ton.

yes the fact that he raised from the button make a 3bet for value more profitable I think...

i would 3bet a button open in BB every time with TT..

Hey Eraser what do u mean by in a vacuum?

I think you played it fine.

Although he is playing a loose style, is not raising many hands. I might 3bet depending on several factors like his steal percentage.

Being OOP is going to make it hard to extract good value and the chances that an overcard will flop are really high, although TT is still a decent to defend especially if villain plays honest post-flop.

I think the 3bet PF is a good play against most BTN raises.
The flop is great for your hand, IMO you should be c/r here. You do it for value and not to give free cards to outdraw you (any overs make it difficult for you).

i dislike c/c the turn. i mean this line is fine i guess if we know he is a barrelholic.

I would definitely fold the turn knowing that Villains AF is only 0.9

u played this very very very very passively......id 3bet pre all day here 5 handed vs 30/15...ur waaaay ahead of his range......if he calls....Id cbet for value or ck raise if i felt he would bet worse hands 77 88 99 etc......obv not a great turn but based on the flop action I might ck the turn...its tough to say what Id do after that based on reads and what he does on the A turn ...but calling all the way along with a hand this strong 5 handed pre is way weak/ passive in my opinion....wining poker is aggressive poker...

If he is raising pre with a 15% range we are a 56 to 44 favorite. If he knows something about position we´re even better.
I think 3bet/fold to 4bet should be our default.

Given a 15-20% preflop-raising-range this flop should favor us. I guess we can bet/fold or c/r and fold to a reraise. The bet or c/r would be for value/protection.

As played I would fold the turn. I think the only reason to call is in hope of a free showdown. But if he has an Ax he might well fire another barrel and he might even bluff a turned FD or something, cause we didn´t show much strenght at all, did we? So I don´t think there will be many free showdowns for us.

I think preflop is a 3bet.

I don't mind the c/c on the turn. it is a great card for him to barrel, and I would expect him to barrel most if not all of his range there.

After he fires the river, unless you have a history of him betting all 3 streets on bluffs or with a hands like 8s, I think you can fold.

this is probably okay.

preflop- i don't mind 3-betting that much for obvious reasons. flatting is okay too, though.

flop- i might c/r, depending on the dynamic you have. but if you don't have any history (or any reads), c/c-ing can be okay too.

turn- it's tough here...yeah, he's going to be bluffing a fair amount, and he's probably going to fire this turn with ATC. thing is, many people (fish especially) can get semi unbalanced in this spot, meaning they'll bet all bluffs but nothing really for thin(ner) value (such as KK or w/e).

if you call this turn, you ARE going to be facing a river bet a decent % of the time (imo). i don't really mind folding the turn but calling the turn and c/f-ing river can be alright sometimes...I guess. i wouldn't mind looking him up for some information, though.

ok so if we 3bet pre, we cbet and what are we doing facing a raise? JJ,QQ or slowplayed KK, AA are a big part of his range for calling the 3bet IP...I guess that some PP and suited broadway too but I really suck in these spot with overpair. Can we call the raise being oop??

if we 3-bet preflop and get here to this flop, i'm probably not folding too often. against a tighter player i think you can just b/f...but even then it's eh. i suppose people don't really shove pure overcards (ie. KQ) on this board enough to justify b/c-ing it off every time. more importantly is that OP should be looking for specific reads on players...what hands their composing each action with, that's going to make your decision alot easier.
