Going with Fnord's advice I stopped fucking around with big hands.

Now on the flop, what would this person possibly reraise me like this with WITHOUT a ten? So when the turn came, he thought about it a bit and checked, I thought about it a lot and checked. Folded the river after he pushed all in instantly. This hand saddens me. Would you have called or pushed the turn?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (7 handed) converter

BB ($10.40)
UTG ($11.20)
MP1 ($14.75)
MP2 ($2.25)
CO ($10.45)
Hero ($12.60)
SB ($9.90)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 7, 7.
UTG calls $0.10, MP1 calls $0.10, MP2 calls $0.10, CO raises to $0.3, Hero calls $0.30, 1 fold, BB calls $0.20, UTG calls $0.20, MP1 calls $0.20, MP2 calls $0.20.

Flop: ($1.85) T, T, 7 (6 players)
BB checks, UTG bets $0.3, MP1 folds, MP2 folds, CO folds, Hero raises to $1.3, BB folds, UTG raises to $2.3, Hero raises to $5.3, UTG calls $3.

Turn: ($12.45) T (2 players)
UTG checks, Hero checks.

River: ($12.45) Q (2 players)
UTG bets $5.6 (All-In), Hero folds.

Final Pot: $18.05
Main Pot: $12.45, won by UTG.
Pot 2: $5.60, returned to UTG.

Yup, you had the right reasoning behind your fold.

The same reasoning should lead you to a nice healthy flop reraise.

I can understand the merits of pot commiting him on the flop, but he is chasing 3 hidden outs and 1 pretty obvious one.

I don't mind this hand at all.

You mean the revolver, sir?
Precisely.

I think you played this hand fine...you just got counterfeited. The T hitting the board destroys your hand, but this doesn't happen very often.

Probably a good fold. I don't think your opp has a T though, I'm thinking something like pockets Jacks or 9's.

Why JJ or 99? He clearly has quads.
