    Default TT flops a set.

    This was the very first hand of a 6-max $5.50 SnG. What do I do here and was my flop bet ok?

    Big Blind is t20 (6 handed)

    SB (t1200)
    BB (t1200)
    Hero (t1200)
    MP1 (t1200)
    MP2 (t1200)
    Button (t1200)

    Preflop: Hero is UTG with T , T .
    Hero calls t20, MP1 raises to t60, 1 fold, Button calls t60, SB calls t50, 1 fold, Hero calls t40

    Flop: (t260) T , J , K (4 players)
    SB bets t40, Hero raises to t200, MP1 raises to t1140 (All-In), Button folds, SB calls t1100 (All-in), Hero ??

    I can't see folding. MP1 looks like he has aces, maybe an overplayed AK. SB could have a variety of hands.

    As long as we aren't burried by JJ or KK, we are getting the right price to chase a boat against a made straight here.
    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.

    SB is almost always a donk with a pair/draw type hand. MP1 could easily have AK/KQ, 2 pair so I think you can't fold.

    Flop raise needs to be more, like 250

    I agree, I would make it 250 to go on the flop.

    Regardless, I am not folding here although I am not that delighted about calling two AIs including the initial preflop raiser who shoved over a bet and a raise. MP1 could easily have something like AA or AK, maybe even AQ (against which you have 7 outs on the turn and 10 on the river). It could even be a very badly played A x:spade flush draw with overcard and broadway gutshot draw.

    Thanks everyone. I couldn't fold it either.

    Raise preflop, as playerd at the 5.5 I would shove over preflop when it comes around to you

    Pot flop, call AI

    Pacific Poker (888). I only play there because I had a welcome bonus and am building that up. It's a nightmare to get Hand Histories from them though and when you do, they are in a weird Excel format. I think you need an additional Hand Grabber program to get PT and PAHud working properly there too.

    Being a 6max raise this preflop. Even in 9man's i raise 10's EP prob close to 50% of the time.
    Raise 250-300ish on the flop.
    Get it in now.
