    Default TT @ 25nl fr

    Villain I have 5 hands on him. He is sliver star, that is all the info I have on him.

    Pre:Std.
    Flop: Std. bet

    At this point the guy called my preflop raise and turn bet on a fairly dry board. KJ,QQ,88,QTs,JJ,AQ,AJ,KK,AA, though I do not know if i can include this in his range. Further QTs is a stretch but he is unknown so meh.

    Only AA,KK,88 AQ are hands that I beat when he raises. Basically I have 50% equity against his calling range on the flop. So I think the best thing I can do, supersingly is check. I am not sure if I can really widen his range enough to make sense betting on the turn.

    As played when he raised me I tanked and realized that I am likely beat, but he is laying me 3.68:1 odds I have 10 outs to boat, or 10/46. Which is 3.6 exactly. River is a blank. He bets I fold.

    preflop and flop look great. turn is tough. at first i got the impression your betsize might have turned your hand range face up and induced some spazz but without reads i guess you have to assume he's not raising a turn lead on this board with two pair. MAYBE he will somtimes have 88,99 here (you didnt include 99 in your flop range for villain). but as played i guess you have to call the turn with correct odds to fill up and fold when he sticks the rest in (this is obviously dependent on the assumption that on the turn he only raises with a straight)

    hmmmm river is fine as played, turn is tough to me, maybe just check so you get value from like 88 or KQ on the river since he will check those behind on the turn? Would be a lot easier with reads obviously, it just really sucks to get stuck putting 40bbs in on the turn with 10 outs

    I like a c/c on the turn. As played river fold is fine.

    i think i agree with the C/Cing the turn > its not like you can deny him draws if he already got there and 1/2P probly aint doin it anyways. I think c/c turn c/f river depending??

    Check/fold river without a crazy dynamic. He's value towning you way too often for full ring at this stake. Otherwise I think the hand is fine.

    I think if you're going to bet the turn it has to be bigger. Your sizing is screaming that you're trying to avoid getting all the money in. But yeah I think c/c has to be better, you basically have a draw with too much showdown value to semibluff. As played I also fold river

    btw, just to clarify, the problem with the small turn bet is that it makes him likely to raise a more balanced range, whereas if you bet larger I expect him to raise almost entirely a nut range
