    Default Set of Ts all in

    I was pretty sure I was ahead, but was a push the right thing here? I was scared of all the draws, so I wanted to get it all in while I was ahead and either push him off the hand or not have to think about it if a scare card fell. I guess this is kind of playing scared - what should I have done on this hand?

    I would have just pot the turn and then stuck it in on the river no matter what hits.

    Pot is like $11 on the turn and you only have $16 left behind. I like the push since people often think it's a bluff and will call with marginal hands thinking you are on a draw or missed overcards.
    Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

    I don't think so.

    Never read any stickies or announcements
    raise more preflop (3 limpers), your subsequent flop bet becomes bigger, and you can stick it in comfortably on the turn without overbetting the pot.

    problem solved. I'm so smart.
