    Default Help with this hand

    MP2 has only been at the table about 30 minutes and the only hand I saw him play was A 10 offsuit, he limped from middle position and he just checked it down. He has limped a few other times. But with that is there a way i could have gotten out of this hand without losing as many chips?

    I would just give up on the flop, this is one of the worst possible flops you could have gotten. He's probably limping and calling a raise with middle pairs and broadway cards, very few of which are folding to a bet on that flop. And if you are ahead, from your description it sounds like he'll let you check it down. If he's the type of guy to play all kinds of stupid hands, a flop bet is in order just so he doesn't get a free shot at 6 outs, but he sounds tighter than that. So yeah, when this flop comes just accept that you probably aren't going to win the pot.
