    Default Another limp pot, top and bottom getting action

    I'm playing $1000 and just sat down.

    A few limpers, I check the BB with :Td:

    ~$50 in the pot.
    Flop is: :Ts:

    I lead out for $40, badish looking player calls ($600 or so), regular (maybe a little under $1k) makes it $140.

    So I know this guy's game really well. His pre-flop EP limp range is any pocket pair, suited connector, suited ace, suited broadways, AJ+, KQ+. Maybe discount the weaker non-pair hands, particularly since he just got unstuck. He rarely comes in for a raise from EP. He knows I'll stab at flops with any draw, Tx or two pair. He also knows that sometimes I can do this with any pair or air (rarely and often on dry flops, but I don't know if he knows the wet vs dry part.) I doubt he's bluffing so let's say his range is ATs/KTs/TT/44/33/43s/56s/JJ+

    I think about it and just call...

    How'd I do so far?

    Looks fine. what hands would he call your 3 bet with on this dry flop? I highly doubt that he will continue with his pair T hand or even overpairs

    I would strongly consider folding. Calling is fine, 3betting is pretty bad.

    Results:

    I call.

    Badish player goes all-in (uh oh, the dreaded flat/push line)
    Regular either quickly calls or goes all-in. I forget and all that matters is that he did it without hesitation.

    I table my hand, ask which one of them has the fours and throw my cards into the muck.

    How'd I do?

    This. I would like to think that I could fold to one small raise here, but I suck. We are WA/WB and any raise is just raising for info, which I'ms told is the worst raise of all.
    I especially like your comments. I am guessing reg has 44 with that tiny ass value raise. Bad player probably showed 56 and caught a case of the fuck-its when he saw how much money was in the middle.
    Playing live . . . thanks alot Bin Laden.

    You made a mistake asking about the fours You still have the best hand a fair amount of the time, but not enough to call.

    Bad player had the fours.
    Regular had an over-pair. Probably something like Jacks.
