Hi, I played this hand today and want to see if others think I missed value by not raising. Feel like I may have played a little passive but at the time I just felt like I would be raising into a hand that beats me.

UTG calls $0.10, 1 fold, MP1 calls $0.10, MP2 (poster) checks, MP3 (poster) checks, 1 fold, Hero calls $0.10, 1 fold, BB checks.

Flop: ($0.70) 5, 4, T (6 players)
BB checks, UTG bets $0.5, MP1 folds, MP2 folds, MP3 folds, Hero raises to $1.1, BB folds, UTG calls $0.60.

Raise turn to $2.75 then River to $4.75. Looks like he has A10s or K10s to me
Never bet on a white man in the heavyweight division!

I disagree. The point of raising here would be to end up in a post-flop situation where we have the initiative and position on one or two players at the most. Against one or two limpers this would probably be fine, but here with four in before we're to act, it's probably best to just limp along, especially at 10nl where we're more likely to get more callers preflop, and where players are more likely to pay off big hands in limped pots.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

 Agree with spoon that we should limp behind. Also agree with Badger's raise sizing. And yeah, I'd say you missed a lot of value.

Yes, sometimes I will raise any pocket pair preflop but I like to mix it up especially as spoon said with a lot of limpers in front. Better chance I feel of someone else hitting a nice 2nd best hand. Ya I thought I played this pretty weak. Don't really know why, usually I'm over aggressive. Anyway, guy had 45 so I woulda probably got his whole stack. Thanks.
