    Default Some hand.

    Multitabling short-handed, so not much of a read. I'm assuming the other guy is at least familiar with the idea of counterfeit (so even J-T is likely to fold). Thoughts here?

    why??

    I don't get this hand at all.
    To win in poker you only need to be one step ahead of your opponents. Two steps may be detrimental.

    To win the pot. I don't want to check and risk losing a showdown to something like K-J. Moving in was about a pot-sized bet, and he can't sanely call with any of his likely hands.

    Sorry, I completely missed the board paired on the turn.
    Guess I should pay more attention.

    I agree with the read he has to have at least a J and a good kicker but without a read or LAG image I dont like it because I doubt if many players would credit you with a 3 after raising pre-flop. You look like you are trying to buy it on every street and certainly when he calls the turn Im thinking the river bet is a waste of $$$.

    Eh, I don't need a 3 to go all-in here. I may play an overpair or a flopped set of T's or J's identically.
