    Default TT 3bet pot bad image

    Only played like 25 hands at the table but was running like 44/33 at the time. Opponent appears on a lot of tables so he is obviously a reg. and he likes the 200bb deep tables so maybe he is familiar at 200nl. He was running 23/23/3 over the 25 hands. Not sure what to do with his weak leading bet (yeah I know these are in style now but never really been apart of one). Calling gives him a lot of outs to bluff out my hand on turn. Raising only gets value from AdKd or maybe some other dumb diamond draw if he is capable of 3betting semilight. Folding seems weak, but is it ok?

    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $1 BB (5 handed) Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    BB ($117.85)
    UTG ($88.80)
    Hero ($101)
    Button ($100)
    SB ($200)

    Preflop: Hero is MP with T, T.
    1 fold, Hero raises to $3.5, 1 fold, SB raises to $13, 1 fold, Hero calls $9.

    Flop: ($26.50) 9, 9, 2 (2 players)
    SB bets $8, Hero?

    I want to see others responses to this. This is a crappy spot and I don't know what to do.

    I don't know about 4betting preflop. If he's playing as many tables as you say he might not be paying enough attn to you small amount of hands at the table so far, so TT a little light to stack off with there?

    That flop bet size makes it hard for you to raise as you'll have a 1/3 of your stack in there with any decent raise. And like you said, only getting value out of FD and calling brings potential for 4 over cards and flushes.

    I would think if he had overpair on you he'd bet that flop harder or CR you. I dunno.

    If you feel hes trying to play back at your and with those stats I would not mind getting it in. As played call flop and c/f turn.
    Flopping quads and boats like its my job

    it looks like he wants to own your soul on the flop.... it is super weak but I call flop and fold turn

    ill think about it more though

    Why not fold preflop?

    Edit: As played I call flop, fold to a decent turn bet.

    3 betting/ 4 betting history is pretty important. If there is one I might get in it preflop however here I play it the same as you and call flop reevaluate turn likely fold turn.

    If I think I have a bad image at a table, and believe SB to be 3-betting light because of this, then I do as mcat says and 4-bet call preflop.

    Folding preflop is terrible. 4betting and getting it in is OK here

    Please to be explaining why. And you'll be hard pressed to have me believe it's "terrible".
