£100NL - Help needed! (Hand Two)

Hand Two :

This is from the same game as Hand One. I am in the SB. The other two major players in the hand are the BB and UTG. There are 9 players on the table. The BB I don't know what to make of. He seemed very tight and hardly played any hands. I had put him down as a solid player but then he lost a large pot with QTs, where he had been UTG and had hit the Queen. UTG was a weak passive player who seemed to limp with any two and who also had a real hard time laying down top pair.

My stack is about £120. The BB has me covered. UTG has £81.

I was dealt Th Td in the SB. The whole table, but one, limped to me. I checked, so did the BB. There is now £8 in the pot.

The flop comes out As Tc 9d. I bet £6. BB raises to £12 and UTG calls, everyone else folds. I flat call here, but now think I should've raised. Pot is now £44.

Turn card is 3c. I bet £35. They both flat call. The pot is now £149.

River is 6c. I check, the BB checks. UTG shoves all in for his last £33. I call (after a lot of thought), the BB folds. UTG flips over Ac 7c for the nut flush. The BB flips over his folded AJo.

My thought processes:

Preflop : I was trying to mix it up and being OOP in a large multiway pot I wasn't keen on raising PF with just Tens. This may have been a weak play.

Flop : Great flop for me. No one raised PF and I assume no one is slowplaying AA. Bit concerned about the straight draw and I wanted to thin the field, hence my initial bet. I think in hindsight I should've re-raised again on the flop and re-raised aggressively trying to take the pot down there and then. Flat calling to trap in a 3 way pot was dangerous and weak by me.

Turn : When I had flat called on the flop I realised it was a weak play the moment I said call. I bet the turn with the intention of shoving if I was re-raised again. But they both called.

River : Dumb by me. I think the check was the correct play, but I spent a long time trying to work out whether he'd hit two pair (I figured him for an Ace rag by now), he was trying to represent the flush on a bluff because me and the BB had checked or whether he had Ace rag clubs and had got lucky. Probably because I was frustrated from hand one (the tilting mindset that it couldn't have happened to me again surely?!) I called and in hindsight I think it was a terrible call.

Preflop:
Firstly, Raise the TT from the SB, and make it substantial. Picking up the pot here preflop is not a terrible result, and playing a middle pair out of position multiway just sucks! Too many times you flop an overpair and some limp-tard hits 2 pair..you really have no idea what they have. If you aren't raising TT here, then it will become too obvious you always have a monster hand when betting OOP. Raise somewhere around 4xbb + 1xbb per limper sometimes much more depending on the frequency of callers.

Flop:
As played, I like the bet lead, and given your observation of the BB it seems he can lose alot of money with top pair. I like a reraise here. At this point a set is a monster hand, and its all about how to get the most money in the middle. If you think he loses his shirt with top pair then by all means raise.

River as played:
143/33= 4.3-1 Don't overthink the player's action when the pot is giving such massive odds. It is more likely he is just dumping his last 33 pounds in with 2 pair or worse..this really isn't much of a decision, easy call.

River: Please Bet...the reason is simple, you still have a TON of hands crushed here and the opponents don't have much left behind. It is possible that they check back a weak top pair hand that they may feel pot commited to if you raise. you are crushing so much of their range here and backdoor flush is unlikely.
