    Default 1/2 call 3bet w TT in pos and decent flop

    Okay, last hand today i swear. thanks for all the support guys.
    I hadn't played with opp before today, in the small sample I have he was pretty aggro 24/20/6.5 with 3bet 7%

    I think I can profitably call here with 1010 so I did pre.
    Now I don't know if it was a misclick by him on the flop, but I thought with his AF if I raise here it could look like a bluff and he could easily play back at me with quite a few hands so I just called, turn I have to call 100%.

    The thing here is from how it was played so far, what does HIS hand look like and what does MY hand look like?

    I thought my hand looked like I had a pair and if he was betting that river for 3/4 pot it was a clear value bet. If he thought I had a hand like AJ/AQss then if he wanted to bluff me off that with something worse wouldn't a smaller bet suffice like half pot? Is my reasoning way off here?

    Question to ask yourself is why do you think you can call with TT profitably preflop? That will give you the answer to the river decision.

    If you are really serious about putting the kind of effort into working on your game I highly recommend finding a coach. If you can find a good one it makes the world of difference.

    Agree about descriptions, disagree about putting them all in one thread, it truncates our ability to put a good amount of thought into one particular hand and forces us to quickly river a bunch of hands, we don't end up w/ the same types of discussion compared to when something interesting actually does come up in one particular hand --- it gets missed a lot when a bunch of hands are posted in one thread.

    My opinion anyways.

    yeah im not saying put 5++ in a thread.. but instead of starting TEN new different threads either u space them out a little (2/day is cool) like anybody else with common sense would do, or u can put like 2-3 in a thread sometimes if u cannot resist the urge to post a ton.

    its all about bet sizing

    okay, what does the bet sizing here tell you? is a larger river bet more likely to be a bluff or value?

    as stated this player was new to me, no bet sizing read here whatsoever.

    what's my hand look like to him, and what does HIS hand look like to you guys? thanks

    probably a misclick, your hand looks exactly like what it is and his hand looks like AA/KK going for three streets
