Title: Pocket tens on the button. Is this ok? Post by: the rage on August 14, 2012, 12:52:19 AM I'm on the button with Th Ts and i'm facing a raise from the fairly short stacked MP1 (actually UTG+1). He's previously folded to a 3 bet from me. So i 3 bet him again, with the intention of calling if he 4 bets. Incidentally, i only noticed afterwards that the original raiser had 4x'd, should this affect my decision at all?

Can make 3bet bit smaller to something like 880/call Can fold to SB/BB if they decide to 4bet Title: Re: Pocket tens on the button. Is this ok? Post by: SubZERO on August 14, 2012, 09:53:43 PM an open to 4x should defo affect your decision, if its not standard for the player then its heavily weighted towards AA/KK
if thats normal then line seems fine Title: Re: Pocket tens on the button. Is this ok? Post by: the rage on August 21, 2012, 11:14:17 PM Villian did indeed have pocket kings, although villian's bet sizes seemed to vary quite randomly in previous hands.
