PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.02 BB (8 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

UTG ($3.20)
UTG+1 ($5.73)
MP1 ($1.15)
MP2 ($4.32)
CO ($19.99)
Button ($1.86)
SB ($3.85)
Hero ($3.36)

Preflop: Hero is BB with T, 8.
UTG calls $0.02, UTG+1 raises to $0.06, MP1 calls $0.06, 1 fold, CO calls $0.06, 1 fold, SB calls $0.05, Hero calls $0.04, UTG folds.

Flop: ($0.32) 8, Q, 3 (5 players)
SB checks, Hero checks, UTG+1 bets $0.04, MP1 calls $0.04, CO folds, SB folds, Hero calls $0.04.

Turn: ($0.44) T (3 players)
Hero bets $0.28, UTG+1 calls $0.28, MP1 folds.

River: ($1) 6 (2 players)
Hero bets $0.62, UTG+1 calls $0.62.

Final Pot: $2.24

Results in white below:
Hero has Ts 8c (two pair, tens and eights).
UTG+1 has Qh Jd (one pair, queens).
Outcome: Hero wins $2.24.



Was my flop call good? I figured all my outs were probably clean:
2x8 + 3xT = 5 outs. = 10% chance.
My pot odds gave me the right odds without figuring implied odds.

My question is will i get into trouble against QT / A8 too often to make this call profitable.
I thought i could probably put them on a better hand than me later and fold if i had to, whilst half decent hands pay me a little.

Edit: i actually thought a Q was a little unlikely given the betting but this had been a very strange weak sort of table.

Folding the flop would be a crime against your bankroll.

I generally check/raise this turn.

Meh, on second hand after that stupid flop bet, I like the turn play. Yeah, I really like it. If he plays back I think you have a good shot of getting away from this one. If he wants to showdown or draw you take him to the cleaners.
