    Default Getting complicated w/TT

    No real reads, BB is fairly new to table. I was sitting out and missed the hand he doubled up on:

    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (5 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    saw flop|saw showdown

    Button ($44.85)
    SB ($13.65)
    BB ($97.90)
    Hero ($59.30)
    MP ($10)

    Preflop: Hero is UTG with T, T.
    Hero raises to $2.25, MP calls $1.75, 1 fold, SB calls $2, BB raises to $6.5, Hero ???

    set mine, I'm going to say this isn't a squeeze given the very small reraise.

    Looks like an easy fold to me.

    i still call, i see small stacks still call PF instead of shoving and if they do and BB calls your still getting set odds.

    the problem is you're not closing the action. SB already CC/4bet...you can't rule out a shove.

    didnt see the added PF part, thought warpe was pasting it again to point out shorties

    lol, i didn't see SB only had $13...MP has $10. so we actually do close the action...

    still don't think we can call. i'd rather push than call here....which means i fold.

    I shoved.

    Preflop: Hero is UTG with T, T.
    Hero raises to $2.25, MP calls $1.75, 1 fold, SB calls $2, BB raises to $6.5, Hero calls $3.75, MP calls $3.75, SB raises to $12, BB raises to $24.5, Hero raises to $65.3 (All-In), MP calls $4 (All-In), SB calls $3.90 (All-In),

    BB: Damn!!!!
    BB has 15 seconds left to act
    BB calls $41.30.

    Flop: ($156.50) 7, 9, 8 (4 players, 3 all-in)

    Turn: ($156.50) 7 (4 players, 3 all-in)

    River: ($156.50) 2 (4 players, 3 all-in)

    Final Pot: $156.50

    Hero has Ts Td (two pair, tens and sevens).
    MP has As Jh (one pair, sevens).
    SB has Js Ac (one pair, sevens).
    Outcome: Hero wins $156. BB wins $0.49.

    I'm not. Think about it. We're obviously felting against the shorties, so the only one we're worried about is BB, and his preflop betting pattern makes no sense for an overpair. That's what occurred to me at the time anyway.

    Reraising at every juncture in a multiway pot doesn't make sense for an overpair? Huh?
    I run a training site...

    yeah, i don't see how you can rule out overpairs from BB's preflop action.

    anyways, if we were BB with AK, are we snap calling? should we be discounting outs?

    It doesn't make sense to make a weaksauce 3-bet followed by a 5-bet minraise holding an overpair with that much dead money in the pot. If he has an overpair he's playing it very badly.

    No, I agree, we can't rule them out completely.

    I don't know if discounting his outs occurred to him at the time but it did to me.

    Exactly. By the time the action gets back to me the pot's too bloated to fold a good made hand. We have to gamble here unless we're absolutely sure BB has us beat.
