    Default $11 TT facing push on flop with 2 behind me!!

    Ok last hand for the moment as im taking up enough posts for the minute.
    THis a follow on from the JJ post i just done.

    No reads!!! Not much texture on the flop but first to act pushes!! usually someone who hits trips would check raise i feel so i figure im good against this guy but what should i think about the guys acting after me. Should that make me think of folding???even if i feel good against first villian who id say has lower PP given his pf actions!!!

    No hindsight for the blind.
    I fold both preflop and on the flop.

    A bet like this comes down to your reads on your opps. This is a good flop for your 10 10, but I would be more concerned about the people to act after me. I highly highly doubt GlenfordSam has you beat... but then again it is nearly impossible to tell without reads...

    Your facing a raise and a reraise in a poor position. The first person might be bluffing but the 2nd person definately isent. What hands do you put them on? Suddenly your pocket 10's look decidedly average to me anyway. Id be folding these without any hesitation unless i had reads on both of them saying they raise with trash.

    On the flop you might be good but your a big underdog against a higher pair or trip 9's (although i doubt anyone is holding the 9 unless its A9 or K9 at a push) and a favorite against 2 higher cards.

    But then i wouldnt have this difficult decision because i wouldnt have played it in the first place...

    Play good hands in good positions and you have the luxury of usually having easy decisions to make

    Thats my motto!

    looks like alot of tuff decisions here, TT facing a raise and reraise. If you call, the original raiser can reraise again, hence, your in a bad position. tuff call. I think I may have called, hoping to catch my set,but folded the AI bet

    Is this a single table SnG?

    I definately would be mucking my TT in this situation given the preflop action.
    Also, its the first level.
    Why would I want to lose my entire stack in the first level with such marginal holdings facing all this action?
