    Default 10NL - TPTK hand

    Taken from my operation thread. Only been at the table a few hands, this is the first I've played. Villian seems aggressive, but as said its only been a few hands:



    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (5 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver Cards)

    UTG ($10.05)
    MP ($12.40)
    Hero ($9.75)
    SB ($12.85)
    BB ($7.50)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with , .
    1 fold, MP calls $0.10, Hero raises to $0.4, 2 folds, MP calls $0.30.

    Flop: ($0.95) , , (2 players)
    MP bets $1, Hero raises to $2.5, MP raises to $12, Hero ???



    I called, but in retrospect I'm worried his hand plays a lot like a PP which hit a set. I dont play a lot of cash, and I'm trying to avoid making big mistakes, but at the time I felt this was a call.

    Thoughts?

    4 seems large. Is that to give us easy odds to call a push, or some other reason (like its not as large as I think )?

    its fine, sets very very rarely lead flops

    nothing wrong about 4 and definitely a call.

    I need to have seen him get pretty aggro before I call this. Its a set/ 2 pair far more often than something like KQ from an unknown. Its a pretty small percentage who will play KQ like this, and there arent really any draws he could have. Add to that the fact that he overbet both times and I think its a pretty easy fold.
