    Default getting flopped quads paid

    I drop to 25NL sometimes when my confidence is down (I hit a bad downswing in 50NL, bad beats then bad play on tilt). These flops help

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    Hero ($23.15)
    CO ($23.05)
    Button ($19.60)
    SB ($28)
    BB ($15.50)
    UTG ($13.90)

    Preflop: Hero is MP with T, T.
    UTG calls $0.25, Hero calls $0.25, CO raises to $1, 1 fold, SB calls $0.90, 1 fold, UTG calls $0.75, Hero calls $0.75.

    Flop: ($4.25) J, T, T (4 players)
    SB checks, UTG checks, Hero checks, CO checks.

    Turn: ($4.25) 8 (4 players)
    SB checks, UTG checks, Hero checks, CO bets $1, SB folds, UTG calls $1, Hero raises to $3, CO calls $2, UTG folds.

    River: ($11.25) 7 (2 players)

    Hero?

    Pushes, hoping opp. has straight? Bets pot? or?

    your too deep for him to call a push without a boat. i like $5-6 also.
    eeevees are not monies yet...they are like baby monies.

    Raising pre-flop helps A LOT!

    TT is not a hand u want to see multi-way.

    I like to play 1010 and under for sets in early positions (limp/call). If folded to me in later positions, I raise.

    A c/r would be great here - your not getting much if you bet and he hasnt got a 9, but if he has got a 9 you will likely get one more bet from him if you lead, however if you c/r he may be commited to calling a push.

    With so many callers I thought peeling off an additional card could create business that would disappear by betting earlier.

    I feel like I have to at least lead the river.

    I also think that at lower limits a push disguised as the "donk push" when a one carder straight is out there does have a good chance of getting called, as villain may call just to 'get the split' even though I could have a higher straight, I see this happen with some frequency.

    What kind of hand do you think villain has? If he has a straight, can't we can't more than $5? Really what else would villain have here? I think if he had a Jack, he would have bet the flop. I think a pair of eights folds, someone holding a 9 calls my raise, and a boat definitely re-raises. What am I missing?

    Well, I did the donk-push move and it worked, villain called with 99.
